Montana

Last night in Montana, Kos-supported Jon Tester defeated Democrat John Morrison to decide who would challenge the state's Republican Senator.  The Kos folks supported Tester, a more liberal state senator and organic rancher, to challenge Republican Senator Conrad Burns.  The Democratic establishment, on the other hand, supported John Morrison, the more moderate state auditor who was backed by D.C. Democratic consultants and was leading in early polls.  The sex scandal caused a dip in approval, but he still edged out Tester.  Last night Tester pulled off a 25 point landslide.  Anyways, it might be interesting to note that one of Morrison's political consultants was Steve Hildebrand, Daschle's former campaign manager.
