It’s amazing what a little campaign announcement news can do for one’s Republican blood-flow.

If you haven’t met Sen. Barrasso yet, or even if you have, make plans to attend one of of his three campaign kick-off ceremonies.

No, he’s not running three campaigns, he’s kicking off his campaign in three locations across the state! One of them happens to be right here in the Big Horn Basin! Continue Reading »

Last September, Sen. Hank Coe announced that he was giving serious thought to running for Governor in 2010. Given that the seat will be open (provided there is no successful legal challenge to the term limits law), it’s only natural for Republicans to start piling on.

In case you haven’t heard or seen the news, Sen. Enzi made his decision public yesterday. For the past several months, Republican officials have been pondering what Wyoming’ senior senator was going to do this year.

My fellow Wyomingites, this year we face an important and historic election cycle in this state. I know many of you (myself included) are somewhat distraught about the Republican Presidential nomination process. Our nominee has been picked for us by the influence of Independents and Democrats in open primary states and the struggle of having two conservatives in the race vying for the same block of voters.

Let not your heart be troubled. It’s not the end of the world because we didn’t get our favored nominee. It just means we’re gonna have to do some self-examination and regrouping in the party over the next four to eight years.

I was just now perusing the archives of my “personal blog” (which at the time served in part  the purpose that this blog now does) about my previous March Madness picks and came across an interesting bit of information. It’s been one year to the day that a very impressive rally was held right here in Cody, WY. Continue Reading »

Some belated thoughts on the Park County Lincoln Day Dinner. I’m not a fast enough writer to transcribe what was said word for word, and I was so in awe, that I forgot I had a pad and pen handy, so I’ll commentate relying on the things that stick out in my mind. I have made some comments in a couple of prior posts, so if I repeat them here. it is merely because I forgot that I already said it or that I just wanted a central location for my thoughts on the event.
