“Once again, Amy takes on the most important issues that affect all Americans...”

Don’t disagree with you. I’ve never voted for Amy - not even when she was Hennepin County Attorney. But I will give her credit for one things.

Rightly or wrongly, she makes herself visible. Now we can debate as to whether they are more pressing matters in the world than Ticketmaster (and we’d both agree there are), she manages to find the spotlight.

She shows up to see that old veterans are awarded the Silver Star they never got. She’s always at the state fair greeting people the first day when it opens, etc.

People remember this stuff. It would do our GOP incumbents to do the same. I cite Norm Coleman as an example. between his election in ‘02 and re-election in ‘08, he was the invisible Senator. No one knew WTF he was doing. If he had put 1/2 of the effort in that Amy does, he’d have easily won re-election against Al Franken.

That’s how Tom Daschle survived as long as he did in a red state like South Dakota. He retailed campaigned like there was no tomorrow. he also acted more conservative when he was back in the state too - but that’s a different story.

As much as Amy disgusts me, politically she’s doing the right things. People remember the low IQ things like Ticketmaster and not that she’s votes like a Socialist on most matters. They ignore the fact that she’s really an empty pants suit.

Our GOP incumbents should learn the ins and outs of better politicking too.

I was being sarcastic.
