Burns blasts 'Northeast liberals' at GOP convention |
2006-06-19 |
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?" |

#5 "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?" Sounds like the Republicans have their 2006 election taling points! |

#3 A scoundrel. How about mentioning something other than how bad the liberals are or how he bilked tax money for pork projects. |

#2 As oft repeated, the Reps would be in very very serious trouble, if it wasn't for the Dems being the only alternative. |
