I have been watching the whole Burns/Abramoff situation and have not been surprised by any of it. The newest information coming out on the case leads me to think only one thing. Burns needs to pull out of his re-re-election campaign and let some candidate that doesn't have such a stain on him run for the seat. There are quite a few calling for him to resign but I really doubt Burns would do such a thing with a Democratic Governor in an election year.
Who the Republicans could run that the voters of Montana could stomach after this mess is really beyond me. There is no strong Republican candidates that I can think of around to do it.
Will Burns pull out for the good of his party? Not a chance, he will stick it out and take the whole Montana republican party down with him. It will be interesting to watch the train wreck, won't it?

I don't think Burns will pull out either, or there is a Republican candidate who could step up. Or a Democrat. It might be better if we just had no representation.
