MT-SEN: Matt Rosendale (R) tells ridiculous lies about Sen. Jon Tester (D)

[Heisenberg]

Assault man said the same thing about Quist and won.  Still Tossup.

Yeah, don't underestimate him. In Montana, you need to define the opponent early, and I'm sure there's a decent amount of "hardcore Trumpists" here and all over the country who will believe stuff like this and not trust the fact checkers. I still feel good about this race, remember, Wulfric seems to just LOVE Tester.

Yeah, I agree with the analysis in this thread. This race is definitely Likely D now, and much closer to Safe D than Lean D. No way someone like Tester can lose, and all the Republican overconfidence here is definitely unwarranted.

Weren't you the one telling me I was too bullish on Tester in another thread? Your inconsistency is amusing.

He was being sarcastic. Seriously, you couldn't tell? Isn't that why he put the italics? I believe he's singling out people like you (without actually dropping any names) for being overconfident, as you have been about Tester for some time. Also, please name me one time where a "Pants on Fire" rating from Politifact sunk someone's campaign, because I can't think of any.

Re: Italics = Sarcasm : Eh, maybe, maybe not. Obviously it's in your best interest to latch on to any remotely possible sign of sarcasm in any pro-Tester post here, so your judgment of MT's seriousness  is unreliable.

One lie often leads to another and another and another, which can sink a campaign. Just ask Michele Bachmann.

Okay. Look, Michele Bachmann is a certified nutcase, and unlike Rosendale, her lies legitimately questioned the patriotism of Obama, and she jumped on the birther and "Obama is a socialist Kenyan Muslim" trains, and kept saying this over and over. Until I hear Rosendale say more, and go much crazier, I won't believe any of this. We'll see, for now, this seems like it'll remain just one thing he said in passing on a low-profile radio interview.
