MONDALE WILL NOT FLY; BUS ONLY FOR CAMPAIGN...[And no stop at the debate]
Worthington Daily Globe ^ | November 01, 2002 | By: Don Davis, Capitol reporter

The Mondale-Coleman race is being so closely watched because, with Wellstone's death, the Senate is evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats. The Minnesota contest could determine who controls the Senate.

Mondale plans to campaign in southern Minnesota today and the northeastern part of the state Saturday. They will travel by bus,

"There will be no planes," Mondale spokeswoman Allison Dobson said.

MONDALE WILL NOT FLY

That is what the voters of Minnesota should tell the ghoules in the DNC.

Or better yet--tell him to take a flying leap...............

What they're not saying is that Mondale, as part of his "sweet deal" with Northwest Airlines, can fly FREE OF CHARGE on any Northwest flight. Of COURSE he's not flying...it would be a conflict of interest.

There is no "former Senator Carnahan." Mel Carnahan was NEVER a senator though he was elected to the Senate! Mel was deceased and could not take the oath of office. MO voters knowingly elected this deceased governor to be their senator.

NEWS FLASH: AS OF LATE EVENING, NOV. 1, MONDALE HAS NO CASH, NO STAFF AND NO WEB SITE.

The Democrat party has GOT to be flat broke. Time to bring out the big guns full force. Bush, Cheney, Guliani.....They dumped McCall in NY because of no money.
There's still 4 days to dump on them.

Good for him! We all know the relative safety of air travel versus highway travel. Go Mondale, go!

From DU (DirtyUnderpants) .com concerning Mondale.....

Got this message from MoveOn PAC. This is an emergency, people, GIVE THEM MONEY! I just gave 25 bucks-- all I can afford as a student... we HAVE to win this one for Paul Wellstone.

They're still using the Welstone crap.
This is a call to give Coleman a few more bucks.

Mondale has a web site that was obtained less than 24 hours from the time of the crash.

THERE"S MORE GOOD NEWS....

Dear MoveOn members,
After Paul Wellstone's tragic death in a plane crash, his remaining family turned to Walter Mondale. Paul's sons asked Mondale to continue Paul's tradition in the Senate by running in his place.
Wednesday night, Mondale was officially named the Democratic candidate in the Minnesota race.
Yesterday, the GOP went into full attack mode. The White House announced that Vice President Dick Cheney, First Lady Laura Bush and President Bush would make successive appearances in Minnesota, beginning today, for Wellstone's opponent Norm Coleman.
We've been talking with the Mondale campaign, and they're emotionally exhausted and besieged. Mondale has no staff, no media dollars, and no web site.
GOP attacks keep coming, and the money keeps rolling in for Coleman -- the Republicans now see this as a winnable race.
Mondale and his volunteer staff are good people running under the most difficult of personal and political conditions. We've just got to help.

Oh I believe you - in fact, there's no doubt that setting up the website was probably planned as soon as the plane crashed. It's the poor farm tactics of pleading for money that's kinda fun to watch.

Not only that, but the whole "memorial service" planned by Car-vile, and the fact that Fritz was probably handpicked by Bubba and McAulifee - add it all up and you've got one hot-tempered Sinkmeister now feeling the heat!
