Otter’s Pick Crawford Backs Allred

For some reason, I don't think Gov. Butch Otter would have appointed Christina Crawford to the Benewah County Board of County Commissioners, if he'd known she was going to support his opponent in the next general election. Democrat Keith Allred's office contacted Huckleberries Online to say that she has done just that. Shea Andersen of Allred's office writes: "We're happy to receive the endorsement of Benewah County Commissioner Christina Crawford today." Here's the statement of Crawford, who's the daughter of famous actress Joan Crawford: "Keith Allred is our best hope for a brighter Idaho future. He understands our issues: taxes, jobs, education and he is willing to work for everyone, not just the powerful few. I support him as candidate for Governor."

Question: What do you make of Christina Crawford's gubernatorial endorsement?
