You won't see this on her website

It was but a small item in yesterday's Idaho Statesman. Still, I thought conservative bloggers would be all over it by nightfall:

Idaho 1st Congressional District candidate Sheila Sorensen was one of the honorees Monday night at a Womens Campaign Fund event that featured a dozen swanky dinners all over New York City and a guest list that included Sen. John and Teresa Heinz Kerry, former Texas Gov. Ann Richards, Martha Stewart, New Jersey Gov. John Corzine, Def Jam Records founder Russell Simmons and more.

The keynote speaker? Outspoken Liberal Al Franken.

The group works to elect pro-choice women of both parties, and Sorensen often fought restrictions on abortion while she was in the Legislature.

She and a handful of other Republican women candidates were heavily outnumbered by Democrats at the fund-raiser.

Sorensen spokesman Chuck Malloy said he didn't know yet how much money Sorensen raised in conjunction with the trip.

Yeah, I'll bet. Sorensen's handlers can only hope her more conservative primary competition (yes, I'm talking about you Bill Sali, "Skipper" Brandt, and Robert Vasquez) don't make much of this. For now, it's on the Dem spin cycle at 43rd State Blues and Liberal Idaho.

UPDATE: He can't spell her name, apparently, but Bryan Fischer, head of the Idaho branch of the Taliban, has gotten ahold of the big story.

UPDATE#2: Bill Sali indeed has it on his website, along with the original article from the Tuesday edition of Roll Call.

Julie -

Sali's website has been hacked, and not only hacked but hacked by them damned 'fereigners' to boot.

I was looking for something about Bruce Newcomb verbally accosting Ms Swindell in his office - calling something she'd done as "bullshit" as she reported in an email sent out to supporters and "others" like me. :)

Re: Brandi, click my name. She has a foul mouth, too.

Oh now - see, the plot thickens.

I'm on Ms Brandi's email list and she sent out this report on her meeting with Mr. Newcomb and how HE swore at her.
