We seem to do the Massachussetts thing on a regular basis: 75% pinko voters elect a "businessman" Republican. I suspect they get nervous about sending an army of liberals into the halls of power, and put a conservative in charge of the show as a precaution.

And does it really take a ballot initiative to build an essential public service facility in Idaho? Christ, it's just a couple of shell buildings and a classroom....Maybe there are some things the free market will <i>not</i> provide. Luckily, fire insurance is widely available!

that does seem to be the leading meme today from the lazy stenographers- Cooch lost because 'too much rigid ideology' and Christie is a 'moderate, pragmatic' GOPer.

Blerch, I can't bear to listen to that drivel for the next 3 years
