Montana law enforcement leaders agree, Republican A.G. nominee Tim Fox is the best candidate for the job in Montana. From the Billings Gazette:
In the quiet political landscape of the upcoming statewide election, one race has the potential to make a lot of noise.
The bid for attorney general pits two skilled candidates – Democrat Steve Bullock, of Helena, and Republican Tim Fox, also of Helena – in a wide-open race.
The stakes are high. Republicans, who have called the race one of their top priorities, haven’t held the seat since 1993, when Marc Racicot left the office to become governor. Current Attorney General Mike McGrath so firmly dominated the office in his 2004 re-election campaign, Repub-licans didn’t bother to oppose him.
Fox and Bullock have long been involved in their political parties, have lengthy and diverse legal careers and have shown the ability to raise campaign money and spend it effectively. In a race that could turn on television ads, both are also tall, athletic, charming and well-spoken.
