2006 Dan Adamson for Governor Campaign
Plans for a Better Idaho

NOTE: The website was originally create for Dan Adamson for Governor Campaign during the 2006 Republican Idaho Primary. Dan Adamson came in second in the primary with 21% of the vote. C.L. "Butch" Otter won the Republican 2006 Idaho Primary and went on to win the Governor's seat. I covered this primary traveling around Idaho with both Dan Adamson and C.L. "Butch" Otter. AFter Butch won the Republican primary I followed not only his campaign team but also the other three candidates. The election was not without controversy, but many days were long with little happening. I often would roll into my room at some non descript motel and go online to read about the campaign's progress. The winters here can be brutal, and in some motels, the heat does not compensate so before I hit the road, I purchased a hooded North Face mens jacket from Bobs Sports Chalet which I often wore indoors! This jacket saved my hide on many occasions and every time I wear it I'm reminded how simple things can have huge impacts - like campaigns!

Getting back to the candidates: I admit I always had a soft spot for Dan Adamson and his platform. When I discovered that this domain had expired I decided to purchase with the goal of recreating the original site with archived 2006 content, as well as additional information regarding Dan Adamson.

Dan Adamson for Idaho Governor

*****

I'm  Dan Adamson, and I think I’m the best Republican candidate for Idaho’ governor.

  1. I pledge to work for all Idaho’s citizens and not pander to big business interests.
  2. I pledge to make Idaho’s education system one of the best in the nation so our children can  have great careers and successful lives.
  3. I pledge to remove all school funding from Idaho property taxes.
  4. I pledge to fix the Idaho Department of Fish and Game so it better serves anglers and  hunters.
  5. I pledge to never allow Idaho’s public land to be sold off.
  6. I pledge to bring Free Enterprise Zones to Idaho with good paying jobs leading to a solid  economy. 
  7. I pledge to make Idaho’s tourism industry thrive. I want the world to know that Idaho is  the most beautiful place in the world.
  8. I pledge to work toward removing one of Idaho’s strongest political lobbies: Idaho Power,  a monopoly that undermines most policies regarding water policy and water  rights. Idaho must legally return a substantial portion of its most valuable  resource, water, to its citizens.
  9. I pledge to engage the brain trust of Idaho farmers to expand food exports. Our farmers are an untapped resource of innovation who have largely been unheard and  unappreciated by Idaho government.

Vote for me on May 23, 2006 and together we’ll make a better Idaho.
