OOST: Cowboys Don’t Have Soft Hands

Out of Stater Tater: Real idahoans know the difference between a real cowboy and a drugstore cowboy. I've met Keith Allred. I shook his hand. Real cowboys don't have soft hands or a soft grip. Allred had both. Now, the only thing this has to do with the election is that Allred is trying to package himself as something he isn't. And that shows he's not being square with Idaho voters. Seriously.

Question: Do you have soft hands or hard, work-worn ones?
