I’d bet a case of green-bottle beer that we’ve seen the last time Liz Cheney appears with anyone running for elected office.
It was appalling this year when Cheney, with a top-notch conservative voting record as our former representative, nevertheless hit the road to get Kamala Harris elected.
Liz hates Trump.
The sight of Liz sitting next to Harris at campaign rallies crystallized the bare-knuckle nature of the election.
In the end, Liz’s help apparently didn’t help Kamala.
Her help was more like throwing an anvil to a drowning man.
Some other final thoughts on the election:
– I voted against the property tax constitutional amendment on the Wyoming ballot, but it passed handily, thanks to a campaign based largely on mailers from the real estate folks.
There were reservations about what a future legislature might do if the amendment – creating a separate category for residential property – passed. But I think voters figured something, ANYTHING, would be better than the current skyrocketing property taxes.
The onus now falls on the new legislature, led in the House by Freedom Caucus members, to address the situation, ease the burden on owner-occupied property, and not make up the difference by raising taxes elsewhere. Make it work by cutting spending.
That will
