Changing his mind about this just gives more fodder for the Republican nominee to attack him with.  It also means he'll be unable to defend his own actions.

He's at 45 against Stapleton, who's Generic R, but Baucus is heavily funded and can draw on Pork Power.

Time for Schweitzer! Or at least a Schweitzer equivalent.

I hold no sympathy for him. Let his career go down in flames.

Please primary him Schweitzer. You'd be an excellent fit for the Senate.

A DINO is better than a tea party republican. Max Baucus wants to be reelected, that's all! Schweitzer was endorsed by the NRA so, why should he be better than Baucus?

Because he's better on restricting corporate power and supporting universal healthcare.

Maybe but Baucus has more cash on hand. And a primary will weaken democrats in Montana. Montana is a red state!

With a Democratic governor and 2 Democratic Senators. Schweitzer is the best pick here.

Schweitzer is actually a far stronger candidate and would do much better in the general election.
