I applaude the decision, but am surprised he is a democrat.


Breath of fresh air isn't it.

I'm further right on most issues than the Republican party, and I really didn't like Sweitzer at all when he was running for office, he's a huge blow hard, kind of reminded me of Clinton. But I have to grudgingly admit a bit of respect for him as he battled his own party on the budget and enviromental issues, including this hard stance against wolves. It's funny watching liberal dems and other advocates walking on egg shells trying to condemn his actions without going too far against a Democrat.
