Heather Scott is a good politician

Heather Scott is a good politician. Her highest qualification is that she’s a great self-promoter. On top of that, she’s essentially anti-government. I say that because she rarely misses an opportunity to criticize, challenge or undermine government.

I got a hint of this the first time I ever saw her. It was a candidate forum sponsored by the Bonner County Republican Women at the Holiday Inn Express on March 18, 2014. She provided an anecdote about her Blanchard farm and roadside stand which significantly exaggerated overreach by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It took me several phone calls to determine she had mislead her audience.
