By: POLITE E-MAIL REQUESTING COMMENT ON POST EARNS “GO TO HELL” RESPONSE FROM DFL ACTIVIST | Minnesota Democrats Exposed

[...] I sent a polite e-mail to Andrea Wiley, a representative of the SD 45 DFL, regarding reports of a "meltdown" by State Senator Terri Bonoff at a DFL event last week. In response to my polite e-mail, I received a three-word response: "Go to hell." [...]

I’m not a big fan of GW, so this is a half-hearted comeback: And Bush still beat Kerry.

By the way, the “jitters” caused you to misspell Paulsen’s name.

Yes, DJZ…except Bush’s verbal gafs are used to portray him as a bungler and a ig-a-met by the lefty-kook-koolaid-drinkers.

…so is Bonoff.

You ever hear of getting the ‘jitters’?

Why did George Bush ask, “is our children learning”?

I’m aware of that she is running for Congress.

But why then did Bonoff say she wants to be our next “State Representative”?

gopgal: With such logic, it is no wonder why Republicans are in the minority. I guess, anytime you disagree with leadership…you are a fracktard.

Now I know why the Minnesota GOP dropped the “I” from the “IR”…no more independence…no more open debate…just march to the tune of the Leader.

Hey Newton (Issac you are not), she is running to be a U.S. Representative. She is already a state Senator (twice the number of constituents of state representative).

The video was by the Madia campaign. They are doing what everyone does, studying the opponent. She is weak and they are just doing their homework. The princess can’t take it. Boo-hoo.

Paulson is not to be overlooked. Granted his position on social issues should knock him out against anyone one of the DFLers but, he did spend years as the District Director over there for Ramsted. He clearly knows the district and people. Its just a matter of time on how long it’ll be before he’s running from his words and record as a State Rep.

AAA is a Fracktard and gopgal is a man.

The proof is in himself. He is his own worst enemy when it comes to this stuff.

Fracktard finally got the clue that no one in this party wants him around!

What I don’t here is talk about Paulson? Last time I heard that guy speak it sounded like he was still living in his parent’s basement and a master at playing Dungeons and Dragons. He came off as very young, inexperienced and flat out dorky.

Let’s not kid ourselves people, neither leading candidate does too well in front of the cameras.

someone has to go tape her at a public event now. if bonoff gets flustered, who knows what she’ll say! who has some free time and a camcorder?

By: Newton

Newton — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 14:15:39 +0000

Is this the woman who wants to be our “next State Representative”?

Wait until the debates – all those cameras and people recording things. She’ll freak out.

OK Supermommn, besides taxing us out of house and home, what are Bonoff’s “ideas”? And please, no phrases like “the common good”, “consensus building”, “carry on the legacy of Paul Wellstone”, “invest in our future”.

Specifically, what are her ideas?

By: supermommn

supermommn — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 12:39:49 +0000

Theres no way you guys will ever see that tape. The democrats won’t get negative like that. This is just a typical republican personal attack. No one wants to discuss the issues or Terri’s ideas.

If someone would tape or video all of Bonhoff’s town hall meetings, speeches etc., I’d lend them my Sen. Dean Johnson digital recorder.

Are you kidding me? If you ever want to see a REAL meltdown, just try to bring a camera to a Hortman event. What a temper on that woman!

Either Hortman or Simon would be better than Bonoff. If Bonoff’s opponent is wise, he will get that video onto the blogosphere ASAP.

Michael,

If you get a chance to talk to Black again, ask him why he chose the pictures for this article, if not solely to embarrass Bachmann?

Bonoff is light-weight, who arrived at her seat, courtesy of Education MN. She is only a candidate due to her lack of record, now she will have a hard time even gaining nomination due to her lack of knowledge/experience/readiness. I was glad that Hortmann got run out of the race by 3rd DFL, because she would have be a much, much tougher DFL opponent than Bonoff. The DCCC is going to have to work overtime to pre-package Bonoff with no risks to keep her from shooting herself in the foot. There will be more candidates, I wouldn’t be surprised if Hortmann reconsiders after the railroad job she got.

I’d be upset if I were her. Being on video would force her to choose between her leftwing liberal self and the moderate she pretends to be. Tough call.

“Shows you were right and Eric was wrong!!!!”

Not only was Eric Black wrong, he’s a flaming hypocrite also. He has used a picture of Michelle Bachmann embracing President Bush in an article that he had posted. The only purpose of this picture was to embarrass Michelle Bachmann. It had absolutely nothing to do with the content of his post.

Michael’s Bonoff video, although very embarrassing, also served to point out her gross inadequacy as a candidate for federal office.

Black is a Hack.

D there are a lot of liberal Democrat websites will do that if they thought these taxes were a horrible idea. The fact that the governor had an opponent in the primary that got a lot of folks should’ve been a message to the man.

Hopefully, MDE will post the press release from Senator Jungbauer (sp?) over Governor Tim (D-Mn) and his backdoor tax increases.

Knowing how he is just a mouthpiece for Da Gov…I would bet NOT.

Of course the video hurt her and she knows it which is why she no longer wants anyone to record what she says.

The poor idiots over at MN Pooplius will have a hard time stating what a great canidate Bonoff is after this one.

Then again they will just act like this never happened like they are doing with the Ritchie story.

I have a feeling by the end of 2008, MN publius will be as insignificant as the democrat underground liberal nutcase blog.
