DOUG GROW: "DAYTON DOESN'T CREATE TINGLES OF EXCITEMENT"
I never would have guessed that Dayton scored low on 'schmoozability' scales.

"Dayton's speech about Rice and the veracity of the administration obviously had no impact on the Senate. On Wednesday, senators voted 85 to 13 to confirm Rice.
The one-sided nature of the vote could be seen as underscoring the commonly held view that Dayton, who is up for reelection in 2006, is a vulnerable target for the Republican Party.
But it is just as possible to see him as a national leader of opposition to the administration.
Right off, that may seem an absurd proposition. Dayton doesn't create tingles of excitement -- except among Republicans eager to run against him. He has jarring syntax (it's more powerful to read a Dayton speech than to hear one). And he grades low on 'schmoozability' scales." Source: Star Tribune, January 27, 2005
