Welcome, www.republicanuprising.com, to Montana’s political blogosphere. You’ll find it under Montana on Flathead Memo’s blogroll. And you’ll find it on the right side of Montana’s political spectrum.
Republican Uprising’s chief blogger is Rep. Matt Monforton (R-Bozeman), an attorney not running for re-election. He intends to stir the elephant stew:
This blog will (hopefully) inspire some Republicans, but by no means all of them. If you’re OK with “bipartisanship” that requires Republicans to continually abandon their principles “until we can get back the White House,” or “until we get back the Governor’s Mansion in Helena,” this site is probably not for you. Nor if you believe that a family seeking to move its third member into the White House in 25 years signifies a healthy republic. Nor if you’re a “Republican” who plans to sleep in on Election Day if the Party actually nominates a conservative for the White House.
Republican Uprising is intended for a different group of Republicans — real Republicans — and is built on four assumptions.
There’s more.
And now there’s once again a political blog on the right in Montana that will be published frequently.
