Star-Tribune endorses Trauner, Freudenthal; party rallies in Rock Springs

• Nov 5, 2006 Posted by Bill Luckett

  The state's largest paper has endorsed both Gov. Dave Freudenthal AND future U.S. Congressman Gary Trauner on its editorial page today. If you recall, the Casper Star-Tribune inexplicably endorsed Cubin in 2004, so their endorsement of Trauner is especially good news.

  Troubling note: I'm in Wamsutter today, and one of the convenience stores reported that they didn't get their Casper Star-Tribune deliveries today. I was unable to contact anyone at the paper to find out how extensive this paper-delivery problem is. I'm just concerned that as many people as possible can read the paper's endorsements, so please, feel free to share the link with people you know: http://www.casperstartribune.net/editorial/

  Meanwhile, I dropped by the Sweetwater County Democratic Party rally in Rock Springs last night, which was a rollicking good time. Among the speakers were Trauner and state auditor candidate Bill Eikenberry, and the event was headlined by Gov. Freudenthal and first lady Nancy Freudenthal. We had just about 100 people there, and there was a strong sense of optimism in the air. If our activists across the state are as motivated to get out the vote as they are in Sweetwater County, we're going to have a lot of success on Tuesday. Two more days!

  As for the delivery problems with the Star-Tribune....those are legendary, even for those of us who live five miles from the printing press. The circulation department, under this gentleman, is in charge: tristan.english@casperstartribune.net. While I generally enjoy the CS-T, I'd enjoy it even more if I didn't have to call twice a week just to receive my paper.
