Idaho's blind support of republican candidates is legendary, there are many examples of (R) politicians who occupied national offices who have painted Idaho as backwards, biggotted and boorish! Chenoweth, Symms, Hansen, Craig and who next Jim Rische?

Idaho needs to shift its political image in a direction that is in tune with the changes that are occuring in this nation. Idaho has a changing population and its current leadership is any but forward looking.
