| | "Top Billings" by David Sirota |
 | | Invited to Washington for a Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee fundraiser, Schweitzer stood up at the event, broke Washington's unspoken protocol, and ripped into drug industry lobbyists, many of whom were in the room. |
 | | When the results started trickling in early on election night, we all waited for the key indicator: Yellowstone County, composed of the state's biggest city, Billings, and its environs. |
