Rehberg is running for the Senate by charging directly at incumbent Max Baucus. The state's lieutenant governor says Baucus has moved toward the right in an election-year ploy to earn conservative support, voting for the line-item veto and the balanced-budget amendment, both of which Rehberg also supports.

She supported the line-item veto and term limits, and with her post on the Resources Committee is in a position to protect the state's national parks...
