Sen. Jon Tester: what can you tell me about him?

Besides the buzz cut, of course.

He's going to be in my neighborhood tomorrow at a campaign cookout for Jeanne Shaheen.

1. He defeated Conrad (embroiled in scandal) Burns to win his seat....

which made me a happy camper...been over 20 years since I've been in MT so I'm not much more help than that :shrug:

2. Rancher from MT

missing a few fingers on his hand. Good guy, tho. Really glad we got him elected and ousted Conrad Burns. Here's some more info:

7. Organic farmer. nt

3. I've seen him on Hardball and other shows

He seems like a real straight shooter kind of guy. Either he is really good at playing Mr. Smith, or he is a decent person, I think. He's an organic farmer according to his Wiki page.

Good solid Dem, good governor.

6. Good man. Less wealth than Biden even.

He is good friends with Schwietzer and they remind me of each other.
