There is a post at Daily Kos with several items about what is going on that very red state, so-called, named Idaho.

Here is the most interesting part:

Idaho the good the bad and the ugly

You need to read all of it, but this part sticks out.

With several polls showing Grant nipping at Sali's heels, the NRCC has dumped almost $200k into this state in order to prevent a Democratic rout in Idaho, according to the latest FEC filings. And they're not done yet: the Club For Growth has scurried back into the fray, pumping in an emergency transfusion of $180k for oppositional TV ads against Grant earlier today. And knowing the Club For Growth, they're going to be leaving their kid gloves at home. Grant is within striking distance of costing them a crucial ally in the House, and they're not happy about it.


That must have been a surprise. One of Dean's goal with the 50 state plan was to make them spend their money, not allow them to hoard it anywhere.
