Montana and Red-State Political News

As I settle down in Helena, I've been finding some great websites about Montana and "red state" politics in general. Here are the ones I've been reading most frequently - take a look, they are great:

Left in the West: A great blog about Montana by Matt Singer, who also writes for Campus Progress.

New West: A new site run out of Missoula devoted to western states. It was co-founded and edited by the same guy who ran the magazine The Industry Standard.

Western Democrat: A site about all things Democratic in the West by Mandate Media's Kari Chisholm, who is based out of Portland, Oregon.

Facing South: Chris Kromm of the Institute for Southern Studies runs this blog that looks at how progressives are making advances in the South, despite the media's portrayal of the region as a conservative monolith.

Swing State Project: A site dedicated to the political happenings in all the "purple" states.
