by Eric Dondero As many of you know I recently won a major federal court case out of Oklahoma for political free speech and rights of petitioners. The 10th Circuit overturned a lower court ruling which would have outlawed out-of-state petitioners from participating in the Oklahoma electoral process. I was one of two plaintiffs in the case. Needless to say, Howie Rich, Paul Jacob, Phil Blumel of US Term Limits, Scott Tillman, Leon Drolet, our Attorney Eddie Griem, and myself were overjoyed with the decision. This morning we learned that the Democrat Attorney General of the State of Montana is appealing a similar decision ... Read Full Story

It was right before Hillary Clinton’s speech, so it’s probably going to get overlooked, but that’s a shame. I’m not sure if there’s going to be a video of it, if not, I’ll try to capture it on replay and get it up here sometime tomorrow. Clinton is about to speak now, so I’ll post again in a little bit. If you’re curious, Gayle Harrell is sitting on a very narrow (less than 1%) lead in Florida District 16. It’s going to be ... Read Full Story

On Monday, I had the pleasure of sitting in on a roundtable led by three members of the Democratic Governors' Association : Gov. Joe Manchin, WV, Chair of the DGA Gov. Brian Schweitzer, MT, Vice Chair of the DGA Gov. Martin O'Malley, MD, Finance Chair of the DGA While it's always important to the DGA to capture more Governors' seats, it's especially important in the 2010 elections when we head into redistricting. Right now, Democrats hold a majority of Governorships, at 28, for the first time since 1992. Gov. Manchin seemed quite confident that that number could rise to 29 or maybe even as ... Read Full Story

MILLTOWN – Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer became one of the first people in more than 120 years to legally float past the confluence of the Clark Fork and Blackfoot rivers in a symbolic gesture to showcase work that is returning the river to its natural state. The governor brought along a fly rod on Friday and landed an 18-inch cutthroat trout in a part of the river once blocked by the Milltown Dam.

Gov. Brian Schweitzer made an East Coast swing last week to stump for a pair of gubernatorial candidates, including failed Democratic primary hopeful Terry McAuliffe in Virginia. Inside the Beltway of Washington, D.C., the endorsement was considered a gamble and, when it didn’t pay off, Schweitzer was mildly panned. Why would Schweitzer endorse McAuliffe for governor of Virginia when he was trailing so badly in the polls? After the former...
