Final Super Tuesday Analysis
Election night is kind of like the Super Bowl to political junkies like me. Thanks to all those who texted, emailed, tweeted and re-tweeted The Western Word last night. It was fun – let’s do it again in November!
One thing was pretty evident as the races unfolded last night: The candidates who sent their bumper stickers to The Western Word did well on Primary Election Day.
Thanks to all the people who ran for elective office – you make this country great. All the results are still unofficial.
Here are some results and comments about Cascade County Elections, Montana Supreme Court #3 (Juras, Sandefur, & Mills), Public Service Commission #2 (Bushman vs. O’Donnell), SD-10 (Fitzpatrick vs. J.C. Kantorowicz), HD-19 (McKamey vs. Pinocci), HD-20 (Anderson vs. Buck), HD-22 (Sheldon-Galloway vs. Loney), Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and Bernie Sanders.
Thursday Numbers
One of the sanest, surest, and most generous joys of life comes from being happy over the good fortune of others. – Robert A. Heinlein
Welcome to “Thursday Numbers!” In case you’re a first-time visitor, this is the weekly column where I take a look at the numbers that are in the news (in descending order) and provide commentary sometimes sprinkled with sarcasm.
This week’s topics include debt, Clinton & Sanders, the Billings escapee, unemployment, Kansas, Trump, Bill Kristol, Major League Baseball, Zinke & Vietnam veterans, the big alligator, Gianforte & Robinson, Taylor Swift & Calvin Harris, special session, Bullock & Cooney, Obama & Hiroshima, and much more!
Caught My Eye…
A cynic is a man who, when he smells flowers, looks around for a coffin. – H. L. Mencken
Welcome to the big show to end the week – “Caught My Eye” (CME) – and the good news is that this is CME #300.
300 – Let that sink in just a moment. I can’t wait to read the congratulatory messages from the President, Senators, Representatives, Ambassadors, foreign leaders, and teenagers.
If you are a first-time visitor, CME is posted right here every Friday morning. This is when I take a look at some of the stories I did not have time to write about during the week. I often throw in a touch of sarcasm to make you smile – or to irritate you just a little – maybe both.
Topics this week include Trump in Montana, Montana Political Donations, Montana Democrats & Accountability, Gianforte Welcomes Candidate, Gianforte’s problem, Daines is Learning, Memorial Day, and much more!
