Green versus Anti-Green in the Big Sky State

The Montana Senate race features Democrat Jon Tester against  Republican Dennis Rehberg. The difference between the candidates doesn’t require any elaborate explanation. Rehberg has a 6% lifetime rating from the League of Conservation Voters (quite a bit lower than Paul Ryan’s).  Tester has a 87% LCV rating. That’s about all you have to know.

It’s little wonder that these contrasting positions were the focal point of a recent debate between the two candidates.  Rehberg said, “I’ll stand with the oil, gas and coal counties,” while Tester accused Rehberg of trying to run against Obama rather than himself.
