Coffee with Amanda Curtis, Montana's next Senator, tomorrow 21-Oct-2014, at 9th Street Nutrition & Specialties. 10:00. Let's have a big show of support.

She has my vote for sure! I wish I could be there! Have to work!

Who won the debate tonight? I had prior obligations.

You can watch it online. Daines was sweating it while Amanda was very calm.

Amanda was very sharp, relaxed, and articulate. She answered her questions easily and did a great job on her rebuttals. She definitely had more zingers than Daines did.

Daines relied too much on the "I'M A JOB CREATOR!" and "THE NRA LOVES ME!" crutches. You could tell he was getting frazzled when he started throwing random Obama-as-pejorative comments in his answers.

It was very apparent why Daines delayed the debate as long as he could. Comparing apples to apples, he was outclassed and outmaneuvered. I hope it's enough, this late in the game.

On a related note, here's what I said in response to some of the comments posted on the Support Amanda Curtis for the U.S. Senate Facebook page:

"If you're still on the fence when it comes to the choice between Amanda Curtis and Steve Daines, please read the comments to the original link. The difference between the supporters of Curtis and Daines couldn't be made more abundantly clear. No candidate is perfect, but I'll take the candidate who doesn't attract the absolute dregs of society each and every time. The misogyny and bigotry and sheer vulgarity on the part of many of Daines' supporters is deplorable. Check out Brian Marshall Rittenhouse's comments and ask yourself if THAT is the kind of person with whom you'd choose to be associated."

Ugliness. Pure, unadulterated ugliness.

Here is hoping that Montana can rise above the Obama-as-pejorative comments and NRA rhetoric. I continue to have hope that Montana will not fall into the same slime that Texas and Florida have.

I agree with Kacey and Brian. Curtis was clearly better in the debate than Daines. Watching Daines sweat and squirm over his extremist Tea Party record in Congress was priceless.

Tune in tonight for a debate focused on eastern Montana.
Curtis and Daines will debate in Sidney.
It will be carried by 92.3 KYUS and on midrivers.com .
7pm 10/21

Good meet the candidate, lots of nice conversations all around the coffee shop. besides some nice photos I also got a great cup of coffee. Thats my idea of starting a day off right.

Where do you live Gunnar?

Why don't you go f*** yourself, Jett?

You are a worthless tool.

Where do you live whilst hiding behind the internet Gunnar?

Tantrumville?

Knock it off, "Jett", or you'll find your posting privileges on this site taken away.

specifically for what reason David Schott?Read the post,Gunnar insulted me and attacked me.Should you not tell Gunnar to settle down a bit?Read the post.If someone`s posting privileges be revoked it seems to me that certainly it should be Gunnar`s for his language and for attacking me for no reason.

Why do I have the feeling I've "gagged" you several times before, "Jett"?

I suspect gabacho, Jett is insult proof.

He/She's certainly proven impenetrable to mere logic.

Best to ignore Jett. He never has anything worthwhile to say.
