Anyone who would appoint someone like Mary Yunker (a former employee of Kathleen Morris) and Sean Gibbs (the son of longtime Anoka County DFL activist judge James Gibbs) to the bench like Plawenty has, IS NOT CONSERVATIVE. We need to also get rid of our trash, like Carol Molnau. This state is going to now get hit hard with tax increases. The Education Lobby and the Indian Casino interests will run this state. Get ready for reparations, more choo-choo trains along with free health care for those who do not pay income & property tax. Say hello to more section 8 housing, more control by the unelected Metropolitan Council and say goodbye to Canterbury Park and the Minnesota Vikings. Let's try to be conservative and run away from people like Plawenty and Bush. When are the Minnesota Republicans start running conservatives for office and quit offer us Rhinos?

Dahle carried Le Sueur County, and you can't blame college students for that. The two were dead even in conservative New Prague, Cox won by only a few in Belle Plaine, and Dahle won by a few in Le Sueur City. Throw in Northfield, with the college students that the Republicans seem to love to hate all the sudden, and it was without a doubt a landslide. Hell, even without the college students it was a damn good win. So, to condradict you, it's clear from the results that Dahle won because college students PLUS everyone else turned out for Dahle. (Side note - kinda funny to hear you say anything at all about negative campaigning. Do you think of this site as a positive, constructive one?) Weak, MDE.

Although that did happen, it doesn't explain why every other Northfield precinct went heavily to Dahle. I congratulate Ray Cox on a great campaign, and I'm excited to see my old friend Kevin Dahle do so well.

Ray Cox took the time to answer all of them and sent further emails explaining his positions. Although I would have preferred the more conservative Rod Tietz, Mr. Cox did make an very favorable impression. Mr. Dahle did not even bother to reply nor did his campaign manager. I fear that Mr. Dahle will be nothing more than a stooge for Larry Pogemiller. As a middle class working guy, I will writing bigger checks to the State of Minnesota for the next few years. When my 3rd grade son graduates from high school--I am out of here--this time for good!

Turns out that, not only did the DFl not "give up" on Dahle, but they made sure he won by 1500 votes. Huh. And since, according to you, the DFL didn't spend any money on the election, it must have just been the voters deciding that they had enough of the Republicans. Cox even lost Le Sueur county. That has got to sting. How does a Republican even lose Le Sueur Co, anyway? But on the bright side, Cox won Wheatland Township pretty convincingly. That'll be a great jumping off point for his next campaign. Gosh, your posts must have been . . . wrong or something.

The DFL usually plays it pretty safe-- some say too safe. It's all about being nice, which is good, unless another polical party is being fueled by fire from malicious bloggers and in general doesn't play nice at all. And, why don't you be specific about the damaging remarks? What were they? There’s no negative and misleading ads on my website.
