MN GOP SPOKESMAN CALLS AL FRANKEN “THE MOST POLARIZING AND MEAN-SPIRITED CANDIDATE” IN MINNESOTA’S HISTORY

By Michael B. Brodkorb | October 15, 2007

"Despite the enthusiasm Franken has been met with during his College Week tour, reception across the state for his campaign has been mixed.

Mark Drake, Communication Director for the Republican Party of Minnesota, called Franken 'the most polarizing and mean-spirited candidate' in Minnesota’s history, criticizing what he characterized as a combative tone and demeanor.

A poll published in the 'Star Tribune' last week reported that while only 45 percent of Minnesota adults approve of the job Coleman is doing. Franken is viewed favorably by only 27 percent, and viewed unfavorably by 34 percent of those polled." Source: Morris Sun Tribune, October 13, 2007

    Michael, you are way to obsessed with Al that you have nothing of relevance to bring up other than to continue to beat a dead dog even further.

    With all due respect, I see that redundance is your more your style. When redundance becomes obvious, so does desperation.

    Kathy:

    I agree with Mark Drake. Al Franken is the most polarizing and mean spirited candidate in Minnesota history. He record will be exposed on Minnesota Democrats Exposed.

    Yet Kathy here you are again to point out what is news worthy or not. ;) Why your blog must be an absolute success with all that knowlege you must have. ;)

    Al is a total classless hack who has spent the last few years lying out his ass on the radio and now we have a chance to expose him for what he really is and I am loving every second of it!! :)

    Funny thing is, if this news is so irrelevant then why do we get so many paniced poster here to jusp at any chance to tell all how any news on Al is really not any news at all?

    I think those of you on the left are afraid that Al is poison and you know he has no chance to win and just hope and pray that no one will pay any attention to this blog as Michael does a pretty good job of exposing jokers like Al. :)

    What’s the deal kathy? No bullshit to trot out in defense of your purse-poodle in chief?

    I think the Al card is a bit overplayed too… well, until I realize that he’s out fund-raising and out polling every DFL Senate candidate.
