Utah had it's statewide primary election last night, largely a non-event. Nothing of significance for the Dems, but the Reds had a couple of interesting catfights. A particularly offensive congressional incumbent (Rep. Chris Cannon, R UT) was defeated by a challenger who accused him of not being conservative enough. This, though, appears to be an anti incumbent vote because in the next two most important races foaming at the mouth right wing incumbents were defeated by moderate Reps. Given that the mood in the country seems to be so dissatisfied right now that conservatives can lose even in Utah, I sure like our odds better than McCain et al.
