Nonini To Hart: You’re ‘A Tough Guy’

Following the banquet, as legislators were making their way to the hotel bar, their waiting cars or beds, Hart could be found in the ballroom’s adjoining hallway kibitzing with (Wayne Hoffman of Idaho Freedom Foundation) and receiving occasional handshakes and back-slaps from well-wishers. One, Coeur d’Alene Republican Rep. Bob Nonini, was overheard bolstering Hart’s spirits, telling him that he’s “a tough guy.” Hart exited the hallway and made his way through the rush of legislators after seemingly ignoring several requests for comment from Boise Weekly/Zach Hagadone, Boise Weekly. Full story here.

DFO: The story also points out that Eric Anderson's recent complaint against Hart carries more weight than John Rusche's earlier one which led to action by the House Ethics Committee, because it focuses on a possible crime committed by a legislator.

Question: Do you think this thing's over?
