2016.


Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer. LOVE.


Seriously, he showed he could positively ignite a crowd at this year's DNC - just like Obama did in 2004. He's massively popular, with approval ratings in the high 70s, doing awesome things for his state, and his popularity is turning Montana bluer (McCain won the state, but by a smaller margin than Obama won Ohio or Florida). He is actively bipartisan; his lieutenant governor is a Republican. And, I would especially enjoy Republicans' heads exploding over how a Democrat could out-folksy them. Seriously, this guy appears to bring his (adorable!!!!!!!) dog to every meeting, campaign stop, and press conference. From everything I've seen, I can declare: He's so awesome. Schweitzer 2016!
