Montana will be invaded by several nationally-known Democrats in the next week or so. Yesterday it was announced that former President Bill Clinton will be doing the H-G-H tour on Tuesday in Montana (Helena, Great Falls, Havre).

Ironically, Bill Clinton will be in Montana on April Fool’s Day [insert your own joke here]. Maybe Bill isn’t really showing up at all, and this is an April Fool’s joke on the good folks in Helena, Great Falls, and Havre?

Next Saturday the Montana Democrats hold the Mansfield-Metcalf dinner in Butte, with Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama speaking. I wonder if they will eat there.

I happened to read the “rules and information” for those attending the event. There were a few items I found interesting:

-No firearms or weapons–even those permitted for legal carry at other times–will be allowed on the premises.

-Stadium seating tickets come with a complimentary box-meal and bottle of water.

-For those sitting on the floor, we’ll be able to provide light supper.

It looks like a great time for the Montana Democrats. Especially for those people who get to sit on the floor and eat (I hope they have plenty of napkins), and for those people who get a free box meal and water.
