 Wyoming senator says ‘there are not enough Democrats’ to help Liz Cheney win primary
by Brad Dress - 07/10/22 10:07 AM ET

Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) on Sunday cast doubt that Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) could prevail in the state’s primary because “there are not enough Democrats” to propel her to victory.

In an interview on “Fox News Sunday,” Barrasso referred to Cheney’s outspoken rhetoric against the Jan. 6, 2021, storming of the U.S. Capitol and her position as vice chair on the House panel investigating the rioting as potential trouble in the race ahead of the Aug. 16 primary election.

“Wyoming politics is very personal, it’s face-to-face, it’s town-to-town,” Barrasso told host Mike Emanuel. “The travel that I have done around the state, I think she has a lot of work to do if she hopes to win the primary.”

Cheney, who also voted to impeach former President Trump for his alleged role in the Jan. 6 rioting, is fending off a number of Republican challengers, including Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman, in her bid to hold her seat in Wyoming’s at-large congressional district.

With Trump flirting with a potential 2024 White House run and many Republicans still backing the former president, Cheney last month began urging Democrats to switch their party affiliation in the primary to help her win reelection.

Face to face?  Town to Town?

Looking forward to that, and the likely heckling she'll encounter when she tries to sell her "sell out" brand of RINO sauce.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

I would expect the average Wyomingite would vote for a cow pie in the primary over Liz.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

How far will Miss Lizzy go to keep her seat?

Not to mention that there's like, what, maybe eight Democrats in the whole state?

Nah. She's all done. She just don't know it yet. And what an embarrassment - Cheney is a big ol name in Wyoming. Not going to be big enough anymore.
