Burns blasts 'Northeast liberals' at GOP convention
 BILLINGS - Without ever mentioning his Democratic opponent by name, U.S. Sen. Conrad Burns said Saturday he is proud to have brought millions of dollars of federal money back to Montana, and he fully supports President Bush's war on terror. Speaking to the Montana Republican Party convention, the three-term senator referred to Democratic nominee Jon Tester, president of the Montana Senate and a Big Sandy farmer, only as "my opponent."He raised the specter of what might happen if Montanans don't send him back to the Senate and Democrats take over. "Do you want Ted Kennedy picking the next judges?" Burns asked. "Send me back to Washington. Do you want John Kerry to run defense? How about Hillary Clinton running your health-care system?"
