Tarryl Clark, who tried to unseat Michele Bachmann from Congress in 2010, wants to take on Chip Cravaack in 2012.
Clark told the News Tribune on Saturday that she is filing papers with the Federal Elections Commission to seek the Democratic nomination for the 8th District seat and will send an e-mail and video to supporters on Monday announcing her intentions.
Clark and her husband, Doug, have purchased a condominium in Duluth where she will spend a good chunk of her time during the campaign, she said. They will maintain their residence in St. Cloud, Minn., where Doug Clark works. St. Cloud is just south of the 8th District border with the 6th District, where Clark won about 40 percent of the vote in her battle with Bachmann.
Clark, a former state senator, noted that redistricting is under way, and its possible St. Cloud and Duluth would be part of the same district. Theres no lines yet, and we just cant wait for people to be figuring this out, she said. I really believe the important lines are about fighting for our families and sticking up for people.

Did she pack a Carpet Bag?
She loves the people of the 8th if she wins next time though.
These people disgust me.
And a wind vane?
Odds are she is a DFLer—That’s the Democratic Farmer Laborite Party whose tangle roots trace back to the Communist Party in the 20’s & 30’s. I grew up in MN and then went into the AF where I grew up and learned there are right thinking people in the world.
Oh yeah, she's a demoncrat. You could also decode DFL as Dumb French Liberal. (or something like that.)
I live in Minnesota NOW and that's not what it stands for:
now it's "Dumb F'ing Liberal".
Cheers!
BTW, does this imply Bachmann is *NOT* going to run for Prez?
If she were going for Prez, wouldn't that leave the 6th empty for the Dems?
Cheers!
Democrats for sale or rent ...
The Communists originally came from the Farmer-Labor Party. It had merged with the Democratic Party, and shortly afterwards Hubert Humphrey ran the Communists out (a little factoid to make a lib’s head explode). Well, their baaaack! MN has the two senators, then the congresscritter representing Mecca and Betty Rubble. Throw in a Secretary of State and an Attorney General bought and paid for by Georgy Schwartz.
