MUST READ: “STATE GOP GOES ON THE OFFENSE”

“State Republican Party officials launched the opening salvo Wednesday in what they say will be an aggressive effort to take back legislative seats.
The effort began with Sen. Steve Murphy, a lawmaker who is ‘out of touch’ with his district, said Minnesota Republican Party Deputy Chairman Michael Brodkorb.
‘Sen. Murphy’s number was just up,’ he said of the Red Wing Democrat.
Murphy is the target of a billboard that went up Wednesday in downtown Red Wing claiming the five-term legislator is ‘taking our $$$ and liberties.’
Brodkorb said the move marks the beginning of an aggressive campaign by state Republicans to kick Democrats out of the Legislature.
‘We’re going to continue with this type of tactic and see what the response is,” he said. “We’re going to be repeating this exercise in as many areas as possible.’” Source: Republican Eagle, August 27, 2009

It’s about time the party got some balls and started to fight back against these weasels, especially Murphy.

“It’s because they hate my guts,” (Murphy) said. “It’s because I work across party lines and they hate it. That just didn’t happen willy-nilly.”
I think someone hit a nerve…LOL
He works across party lines when it suits him, but not the other way around. What a loser.

Is Murphy going to challenge Brodkorb to a fight?

He’s one of the most partisan hacks in the Senate. Work across party lines my back end.
Loser O’Murphy.
