Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but it was my understanding that the Greens in MT were never particularly supportive of Kelleher. I thought he was the only candidate who filed for the office as a “green”, and thereby became the nominee, whether greens wanted him or not.

Bob Kelleher had been a Democrat for most of his life. This is his second run as a Republican. It’s hard to say whether Bob would have run this year under the Green Party banner if they had ballot access. Bob is a big spender just like the Republicans, so I think he fits in quite nicely. Bob will also have a vote on the Republican platform. Bob might be a super delegate as well, who knows. Max will have 9-million dollars to spend on his campaign, so Bob won’t have a chance, but then again neither would the other 6 or so candidates claiming to be Republicans.

What if she wins the U.S. Senate race and decides to switch back to the Green Party after she’s sworn in? Hey, the Greens would have someone in Congress for at least 6 years!

This is funny as hell. It would be sweet if he won the general.
