In a campaign that so far hasn’t had too may high points, Brian “the Bully” Schweitzer has managed to hit another low note that has gotten national media attention. Fox News picked up the story about the infamous email accusing Roy Brown of being a — gasp! — “vegetarian”.

OMG. First the governor starts off his campaign by being found guilty for breaking an election ethics law that he personally signed in 2005. Then came Schweitzergate – where BS admitted that he “turned dials” to effect the outcome of the 2006 election. Now he hits the big time again as one of the subjects of the Political Grapevine.

Gotta hand it to the Gov. He started out with an almost surefire win, and through an absolutely brilliant series of some of the most boneheaded political maneuverings imaginable, has managed to turn this into a very competitive race.

Who knew – Brian Schweitzer is the Republicans’ secret weapon? That’s no bull.

P.S. – Follow the link in the post below to help the governor win the 2008 People’s Choice Crappie Award. He certainly deserves it.
