Montanans, that Burns-Testor debate as a hoot.

[Skidmore]

Spirited and no holds barred. Was broadcast on CSPAN this pm and was some good teevee.

[MrModerate]

1. Tester wiped the floor with Burns . . .

And then wrung him out into a bucket. And yeah, that was one partisan (pro-Tester) crowd -- or maybe Montanans are so sick of Burns that an evenly divided crowd sounds like it's been picked entirely from Tester supporters.

If that debate reflects how the vote will go, Burns can go home now -- he's history.

[Straight Shooter]

2. Maybe the crowd was filled with firefighters.

Or people related to firefighters. Or people who have friends that are firefighters. Or people who respect firefighters.

Don't diss the firefighters, "Abramoff" Burns. :D
