Jan Falstad wrote a great story about NorthWestern Energy bonuses today, and Republican governor candidate Bob Brown already has latched onto it, saying he was "angered and astounded" by the bonuses.
His news release goes on, "Brown said the Northwestern situation is just another unintended consequence of deregulation, which Brian Schweitzer's running mate, then-Rep. John Bohlinger, voted for as a member of the Legislature in 1997."
Neither Brown nor his running mate, Dave Lewis, was in the Legislature then. Now he is asking us to believe that he would have been the voice of courage and conscience standing up against the forces of dereg, if only he had been there. OK, Bob, we're trying.
