[...] Two weeks ago, Al Franken traveled to Texas to attend another out-of-state fundraiser. Texas was the location for this fundraising event and I posted the press release from the Republican Party of Minnesota titled "Franken's Texas Two Step." [...]

Andrew yet Wellstone took millions of dollars from taxpayers, voted for raises for him self and took all availible tax deductions he could. The man was a major leage hypocrit!! He was able to fool a lot of mindless sheeple to follow him like a religous figure, but that is his greatest accomplishment.

The Wellstone family disgusts me!

Andrew, you and I are 100% opposites politically, but I think we agree on how once you get in office, it really corrupts you. whether it’s fundraising, pork spending, or where your residence is (Oberstar hasn’t lived in Minnesota in decades), once you get to DC, you are not the same.

Wellstone certainly did backtrack on his $100 or smaller contributions for his 2nd campaign. And him fundraising out of the state makes me kind of dissapointed…

BK, he always passionate about the rights of the poor.

I thought Democrats hated Texas (because the President is from there).

Andrew, you are wrong about Wellstone though. At least after he got in office. Wellstone “I’m for the little feller, not the Rockefeller.” But then he went to a Rockefeller mansion in California for fundraisers.

He was clearly joking with all of the other things you are pointing out.

But the fact that he is flying to Texas and doing two fundraisers is the absolute opposite of a grassroots campaign. It is also the complete opposite of something Wellstone would do.

God I loathe Franken. Such an un-ethical campaign.
