News today that Dennis Rehberg intends to bring in Minnesota Republican and Tea Party aficionado Michele Bachmann to help him announce his entrance into the 2012 Montana Senate race. It is unknown how this will play out in the long run but on its face this appears as a very poor decision.
Jon Tester is a populist candidate with no strong ideological bent. For the strongly independent and libertarian Montana electorate his politics stand in sharp contrast to someone like Michele Bachmann. Time will tell but I feel this is a moment that will come back to haunt Rehberg.
