7. Thanks.

I moved to this state, from the one next to it, right after he got elected in his first term. Been watching him, this after a years long dust up with the Senators from the other state, and was glad to have a Democratic Senator replace one from the other party. Montana is more purple-ish than given credit. The other state is pretty blood red with a couple oases of blue.

So Tester is a farmer and one who is smart enough to be a Senator but he neither has the chops nor is he interested in giving up the farm life to be president. He's good at the Senate and should stay there for another term or two now that he has grown into his position which doesn't come naturally to him and I think is his strong suit. He's a good one to have in his position and he seems to be effective to the degree that a minority party Senator can be. I do appreciate when he does get up and "tell it".
