Hey, I was just as sceptical about Rammell as anyone, but then I saw him speak and bought into his vision. He’s not perfect, but also not what he’s reported to be. His debate was not polished. But, like cyclops says, “Some great ideas, smart guy, good family man.” I was derisive about the elk too, but realize now that it comes down to the violation of private property by government.

Baumbach should be ashamed of himself. He admits that his video was edited and not really an accurate portrayal. He did this to deceive voters into voting for Labrador. Is this the kind of person we would want representing us in the Idaho Senate ? I think not. Apparently in his mind, the end justifies the means, not exactly the values we would espouse in conservative circles. He is often referred to as a Tea Party Activist …. please … he does not speak for Tea Party members … he just goes to rallys. Actually right now it is unclear who exactly speaks for Tea Party Boise members as their endorsement of Labrador was made without any consultation of membership. But that’s ANOTHER Story !

Bikeboy, Rammel’s problem is he is a little “too out there” to get elected, period! Some great ideas, smart guy, good family man. But in today’s climate, COMPLETLY UNELECTABLE!! That is the sad part about these times.

My confidence in Baumbach is shaken a bit if he’s a Rammel supporter.

For this citizen, Butch Otter has been a huge disappointment as governor. I kinda liked the guy when he was a congressman, but he seems to have lost his “libertarian compass.” However… Rammel is just a little too “out there” for my taste. He should start as a senator or representative, so we can get to know him a little better. (All I know about him is that: 1) he’s the elk guy, and 2) he fancies himself as the man who will save the Constitution.)

No need to read up on the candidates. I always do the opposite of what the Idaho Misstatementmans says to do.

Bikeboy is correct about the District number. 17 all the way!

Don’t for a second believe that Labrador’s campaign has not been sitting on this for WEEKS!!! The old “two days before the campaign” smoking gun.
And don’t believe that this came from Baumbach either! He is simply the conduit. Welcome to “smashmouth politics”!
It really doesn’t matter in the long run anyway. Neither candidate has a prayer of beating Minnick.

Even a blind Wunderlich finds a nut every once in a while.
