Allred: I Can Out-Cowboy ‘Dandy’ Otter
Arpie: He moved effortlessly to a beautiful and smooth closing, saying that he
knows it’s not important to the state but he’s sure he can out cowboy
Otter. He said that Otter was what his grandparents would call a “Dandy”
who bought a ranch after he got rich. He talked about the number of
times Otter has fallen of his horse recently and been injured. Then he
went on to tell a story about when he was sixteen saving a calf being
born by pulling a heifer giving birth out of a canal by himself with two
ropes and a good horse and thus saving the ranch. It was corny as hell,
but a great Idaho story. Keith convinced me he’s the real deal, read to
listen to all and figure out what’s best for the future of the state. I
hope people pay attention to this race and give him a good shake. (See: 10:38 p.m. entry by Arpie for full post here.)
Question: Does it matter to you which gubernatorial candidate is the best cowboy?
