Gianforte has a lot to prove as Montana’s only House spokesman

Greg Gianforte eventually apologized to the reporter he manhandled on election night. For some the apology was late and inadequate. For others, Gianforte shouldn’t have apologized to the "liberal" reporter at all. Such is the divided nature of these times.

If Gianforte owed an apology, though, it was to the people of Montana for reaching the age of 56 and showing the maturity of a seven-year-old.

Good luck to Gianforte in Congress: Montana needs seniority in US House

Greg Gianforte has won the special election for the sole Montana House seat in the U.S. Congress. His 6 percent margin over the Democratic nominee, Rob Quist, earned our congratulations and best wishes.

Since returning home in 1997, I have earnestly hoped each of our newly elected Montana members of the House would not use the election as simply a stepping-stone to a run for the Senate. Our state needs seniority in the House.

Good luck and best wishes, Greg Gianforte. You will need it and so will we.
