DFL’S UNPAID BILLS CATCHING UP TO THEM
Saturday, December 11th, 2010The Minnesota DFL Party has unpaid bills that are causing problems for their local activists. Sources affiliated with the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (DECC) report the DFL still owes them more than $10,000 in costs associated with their State Convention last April. The MN Progressive Project provides a deeper background of the story on their [...]
UPDATE: MN PUBLIUS ATTACK FALLS SHORT
Tuesday, July 20th, 2010Felon voting has been a big problem for the Mark Ritchie lately, so what is a lefty blogger to do? Find some way to blame the GOP, of course! Which is exactly what Jeff Rosenberg tried to do last week. He put up a post entitled “Busted: GOP blocked move to make felony data available [...]
COMMENTS ABOUT AL FRANKEN’S LEGAL TROUBLES DELETED FROM MN PUBLIUS
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008I was rather surprised to see an entire blackout in the liberal blogosphere about Al Franken's legal troubles in New York. I later found out one potential reason. According to a dedicated reader of Minnesota Democrats Exposed, numerous comments have been left today on various MN Publius' posts about the legal problems that were recently [...]
LEGISLATOR THREATENED: END CAMPAIGN FOR CONGRESS OR DAMAGING INFORMATION WILL BE USED AGAINST YOU; LEGISLATOR DOES’T END CAMPAIGN, MN PUBLIUS POSTS INFORMTION
Wednesday, February 27th, 2008This is a really sad story. According to the Rochester Post-Bulletin, Representative Randy Demmer received a threating phone call instructing him to end his campaign for Congress, or damaging information would be released against him. "A couple weeks ago, state Rep. Randy Demmer received an ominous call. It was a warning, delivered through an intermediary [...]
MN PUBLIUS CALLS MPR POLL ON PRESIDENTIAL RACE, U.S. SENATE RACE “FATALLY FLAWED”
Friday, February 1st, 2008Yesterday, MN Publius trashed MPR's poll on the presidential which also asked questions about the U.S. Senate race in Minnesota. MN Publius' post was titled "MPR Poll has NO Predictive Value Whatsoever." It's clear the liberal bloggers at MN Publius don't put much stock in MPR's poll on the U.S. Senate. It would appear that [...]
TEAM FRANKEN SCRUBS CRITICAL COMMENTS ABOUT FRANKEN FROM CAMPAIGN’S MYSPACE AND FACEBOOK PAGES
Friday, January 25th, 2008I think this story is amazing. Al Franken has called Republicans almost every name in the book, but his campaign scrubs comments critical of Franken from their campaign's MySpace and Facebook page. What a wimp! "Davin Fischer says he doesn't believe in censoring the site. 'We try to look for language,' Fischer says. 'Language is [...]
MN PUBLIUS BLOGGER OFF BY 14 POINTS ON ELECTION DAY PREDICTION FOR BARACK OBAMA IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
Tuesday, January 8th, 2008This post practically wrote itself. My prediction? The other bloggers at MN Publius won't be allowing Sean Broom to make anymore outlandish predictions. UPDATE: I just spoke with a dedicated reader of Minnesota Democrats Exposed who attended Obama's "partaaaaaaaaay" at O'Gara's this evening. According to my source, the event had the feel of [...]
NEWS FLASH (NOT): MN PUBLIUS BLOGGER WRITES FOR CITY PAGES THAT REPUBLICANS WILL BRING UP FRANKEN’S MEAN-SPIRITED JOKES; HIGHLIGHTS FRANKEN’S JOKE ABOUT RAPE
Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008"And yet it is Franken's past as an entertainer that has and will continue to dominate the political coverage of this race. It's not that Franken isn't thoughtful or doesn't show a depth of knowledge about the issues. It's that he has said many things in his role as a comic that were supposed to [...]
MN PUBLIUS DEAD WRONG – AGAIN: JOHNSON AT CITY COUNCIL MEETING, NOT CAMPAIGN EVENT; HUSBAND DIDN’T ATTEND EVENT LIKE MN PUBLIUS CLAIMED
Thursday, August 24th, 2006MN Publius has once again missed the mark. Yesterday, the bloggers behind MN Publius launched a false attack on Judy Johnson. "In case anyone missed it (how could you!?), last night was the 'Minnetonka Festival' celebrating the 50th anniversary of the incorporation of "Minnetonka Village" (which would soon after be chartered as the City of Minnetonka). At [...]
ZACH LEAVES MN PUBLIUS FOR KLOBUCHAR’S CAMPAIGN
Tuesday, July 4th, 2006Congratulations Zach! See you on the campaign trail!
CHECKS AND BALANCES: MN PUBLIUS’ CREDIBILTY QUESTIONED
Thursday, June 29th, 2006President Ronald Reagan (R) agreed to missile reductions with the Soviet Union under the "trust but verify" model. Blogs would be well served if they employed similar tactics. Everyone wants to be the first to publish a story. The scoop is what drives newspaper sales, ratings points, page views and all other metrics associated with [...]
HOTLINE MOCKS MN PUBLIUS STORY
Wednesday, June 28th, 2006MINNESOTA: Come Now, Blogs Would Never Exaggerate A Story "Blogospheric political pressure spiked" 6/27 "over online allegations" that Rep. Mark Kennedy (R-06) had "scrubbed" his congressional website of references to Pres. Bush. "For example, a smiling joint portrait of Kennedy and the president that formerly graced the congressman's web biography page has been replaced by [...]
STAR TRIBUNE: CLAIMS BY MN PUBLIUS THAT KENNEDY’S SITE “SCRUBBED” CLEAN OF REFERENCE TO PRESIDENT BUSH “EXAGGERATED”
Tuesday, June 27th, 2006“But the claims by MN Publius, picked up by national blogs Hotlineblog, Politicalwire and Dailykos, that Kennedy’s site had been ‘scrubbed’ practically clean of the president appear to be exaggerated. ‘The fact is, Mark Kennedy’s website includes 72 mentions of the word ‘Bush,” state Republican chairman Ron Carey said in a news release blaming the [...]
C’MON MN PUBLIUS…
Tuesday, June 13th, 2006Senator Norm Coleman's past is old news and we've all seen the pictures. Coleman ran statewide in 1998 and 2002, so voters knew about his liberal past. Entenza hasn't run for statewide office before and his crazy college days are fair game. Also, there is a big difference between being an anti-war protester and protesting homecoming royalty [...]
AND I THE ONE GETTING SUED #5
Tuesday, April 25th, 2006If I was MN Publius, I would have raised the same questions about how I earn a paycheck. I questions their methods, but their logic was sound. As I wrote before, no campaign manager or candidate would allow me to continuing blogging on Minnesota Democrats Exposed and work on their campaign at the same time. I think the blogosphere [...]
AND I THE ONE GETTING SUED #4
Tuesday, April 25th, 2006MN Publius, missing the mark on their first post, has followed up with a new post. I'll humor them by responding to their accusations one more time. "1. Have you been paid in the past two months to do opposition research on Amy Klobuchar?" The answer hasn't changed – no. This is my favorate question: "We also [...]
THEY’RE DREAMING IF THEY THINK HE WAS SLEEPING
