Tester smokes Rehberg; Seabrook: the news is broken...too

Update: Tester Torches Rehberg.


Montana Public Media aired the debate last night in Billings between Senator Jon Tester and his opponent: it wasn't even close.

Denny Rehberg remained incoherent: his mumbling at the podium was often inaudible and his sentences incomprehensible. As was the case in the US House debate, the Libertarian candidate was not invited. Montana Public Radio streaming on iTunes was my medium of choice for the broadcast.

From a piece penned by Chuck Johnson at Lee Newspapers of Montana:

“It was rock 'em, sock 'em,” said David Parker, a Montana State University political scientist who is writing a book on the race. “It was tough. They both stayed on their message.”

Parker was tapped for this morning's NPR story on the volume of money in the race in light of a recent Montana court decision striking down the state's limits on campaign contributions.
