Groutage argues for ESA reform, seeks debates

Senate hopeful Dale Groutage held a press conference yesterday in Cheyenne and got a couple of good pieces of news coverage out of it. Although Dale's press conference was intended primarily to shed light on the fact that Craig Thomas is trying to avoid debating him, the Associated Press seems to have been in a wolfish state of mind, so they ran this story, spreading Dale's message on Endangered Species Act reform. Part of the story hits on a recurring theme of this election year: Do you ever notice that the Republicans are constantly blaming Democrats for the fact that the Republicans haven't gotten anything done in Congress, although the Republicans control both chambers as well as the White House? It is time for voters to hold them accountable.
Meanwhile, the Wyoming Tribune-Eagle printed this story, which focused on the initial topic of Groutage's press conference, namely that Craig Thomas is doing everything he can to keep from debating Groutage. And Barbara Cubin is doing the same thing to avoid debating Gary Trauner. However, the end of the story points out that there are a couple debates scheduled for the coming weeks in which the incumbents plan to participate. As soon as I can track down the exact times and locations (or TV channels) for those debates, I'll post them here.
