Blogos: Catching up with Phil Batt
In this recent Facebook photo, Dan Popkey, press secretary for Congressman Raul Labrador, is shown with former governor Phil Batt. Dan sez via Facebook that Phil is among the classiest acts on the Idaho scene. He’ll be 90 in March and is as gutsy, principled and funny as ever. P.S.: And he’s so humble, expressing genuine surprise when people stop to tell him his leadership is missed and other such compliments.” I forgot to mention yesterday that Dan stopped by for a short chat around noon. We reminisced about our newspaper careers in Idaho rather than talk politics.
