The Day after Blues....

Or as in this case, reds… as Idaho is so red it bleeds..
On the National level, it ought to be interesting how
the Freshmen and women, of Congress do with the
Old Guard.

On the State level, as I said Idaho is so red it bleeds.
The people have never seen a Republican they didn’t like.
They rather have a bad Republican than a good Democrat.
and it is showing this day after. With the Governor who
supposedly no one likes, is leading by a 60% or more as
the last tallys of the absentee are being counted. He knew
he had it in the bag. That is why he rarely does debates and
etc. After all if he wins the primary, why go to any more trouble.

Then there is the State/National meaning the person we send
to D.C., to do what we want… ya, like that happens… although
we did come close last time. It seems like he isn’t going to
make it this time… So if you believe the campaign ads, we
will have a pro illegal immigrants lawyer going to Washington
for us. REPUBLICAN, of course… These two races as you can
tell, disgust me.. while I suspect the Governor would get back
in… I truly thought the Democrat candidate had a chance and
it would be close. And it truly saddens me that it was such a
wide difference. The other is still in question, as we have
the absentee ballots yet, and it is a close race. It will be interest
to see how Mr. Hart did as we know the write in didn’t have a
chance.. and Mr. Hart is the one on our tax commission, yet
decided he didn’t like income taxes, so he hasn’t paid his state
nor federal for quite a while. So other than the write in, he is
unchallenged. So it will be interesting to see how many people
actually filled in the oval dot FOR him.

On our local area, it is politics as usual, most ran unchallenged,
But they are good people even if they are Republican. Lol..
And the commissioners race is still up in the air, a little. The
absentees will make the difference if they win big or barely got
thru.

And the bug in the ointment, is a Republican Challenger, which
I didn’t know they had an official title….but he already started
his protest about the absentee ballots… He is one of those
Professional complainers about anything non Republican.
One of those that we shake our heads at, because of his sour grapes
attitude even before there is time for it.
