Idaho statesman

[rniel]

Just heard that the Idaho Statesman (I'm from Idaho) has endorsed Kerry. If this can happen then nothing is impossible.

For years I wondered why I even bothered voting in Idaho when republican candidates always got about 75% of the vote.

I don't know how these fake polls can show Kerry 49% Bush 48% when a truly arch conservative state like Idaho shows signs of waking up from slumber.

1. That is just bizare

Is this a paper funded by the Democratic Party?

ANYTHING Idaho for Kerry is about as off the hook as it can get. Idaho is probably the most Right-Wing state in the nation.

Although their form of right-wing isn’t the same as the right-wingism I get to ingest around here. Around here it is religious wingnuts. Out there, you have these Libertarian and militia types.

They both have their own rank smell.

2. Hell has just frozen over. Officially.

I'm blown away by this news. Where did you hear this?

Used to live in Rexburg

I voted for Gore there in the last election even though I knew the state would go red.

It would be sweet to see Idaho wake up from it's slumber and at the very least give * a hell of a fight.

I read something earlier today, don't ask me where, that said during this election the x-factor will be all the new votor registrations and how the polls show that most Americans don't approve of the direction of this country.

I'm think there will be a lot of unexpected and wonderful surprises.
