Her opposition out-spent her 2:1 and had the local liberal media against her. AND SHE STILL WON.
That says a lot.
Governor "Green Jeans" and his ethanol subsidies policies are still screwing with us even without him in Office.
Jason would destroy Franken in a head-to-head debate. There would be NO way for the local media to spin it. Unlike the Coleman debacle.
You don't run a "moderate" against a Leftist in this State and expect to win. You run a conservative who can articulate the message and you CAN win. I live in Wright County, the most conservative county in the State, we stand as proof of this. Don't jettison the Base and we'll show up at the polls for you.
Yet both Coleman and Pawlenty, neither Conservative, ran against hard leftists and won (although Coleman clearly lost due to fraud and a 3rd party taking critical votes). Sadly, in the past umpteen decades, there's only been one Conservative win statewide, and that was Rod Grams in '94 (and he only barely won against a certified leftist moonbat). Believe me, I've been highly critical of Pawlenty and strongly opposed him for President, but getting Frankenstein out is paramount, and he looks to be the strongest person to do that. The talk show host mentioned might look and sound good, but even against a moonbat like Al, I can't see him pulling it off. They're going to have to raise a ton of money, too. I'm just a bit wary of our side blowing winnable races with unsuitable candidates.
