Idaho D’s See R’s Chair Vote As ‘Cannibalism’

Sullivan is Governot Butch Otter's political cabana boy, but lunatic-fringe leader Semanko (playing proxy for less-than-lovable loser Rod Beck) gathered enough votes from the party's mouth-foaming base and Ron Paul acolytes to throw Sullivan over the cliff and onto the sharp rocks below. This will not make Otter a happy boy, and it will be interesting to see how he and his cronies handle working with the howling masses. My guess? Butchy and his buddies ain't gonna cotton to sharing political power with the plebes. Expect hilarity to ensue/Serephin, 43rd State Blues. More here.

Question: Idaho D's have been optimistic in the past re: their chances in the fall elections, only to have their hearts broken when the numbers came in election. Do you think the same thing is going to happen this year?
