Issue This!

Breaking News!

AP story
Sharon Marko (MN D):
"We need to be focused on the important issues." But when asked in the same interview she declined to discuss her views on issues."
Coleen Rowley’s response on Marko’s statements:
"She's right that the issues are extremely important in these upcoming elections," "The focus has to remain on getting rid of John Kline."
So Sharon having lived and held elected office in CD2 for years isn't prepared now to speak to the issues?! Or doesn't want to?! Or?!

Coleen Rowley's views on the issues are posted on her website here. Coleen knows what they are and doesn't shy away from speaking about them! She speaks with a loud clear voice...maybe Marko should listen.

what are the people in CD3 thinking about dissing Rowley the way they have been? I just don't get it. Sure she is a novice campaigner, but its still early. The vile words I have heard against her from people who should know better is shocking.

Marko supported Randy Kelly? That should be enough to end her run, come on people get it together. Coleen Rowley is a great candidate and we are lucky to have her on our team.

By the way it is CD2 not CD3. You are right but 99% of us are 110% in support of Rowley. Rowley made a few mistake being a rookie, in not wanting to get help from some of the key DFL people in fear that she would be selling her sole to what she and everyone else hates about politics and that is the corruption.

To let you know what really happened! Colleen P.O.ed some of the local DFLers in CD2 that think they are political gods. I will call them Witch1 and Witch2. Get over it you two. So they recruited Marko!

In general we think Rowley is Great! Rowley is truthful and trustworthy and correct on the issues. This is why when Witch1 and Witch2 saw they could not manipulate Rowley Marko was recruited? The Straw pole on 3-7-06 will show us Rowley has support in CD2.

I actually feel sorry for Marko because when it starts to rain in CD2 Witch1 and Witch2 will start to melt.

Snow Snakes, Bigfoots, Voter Fraud, and Other Things That Go Bump In MN's GOP Dreams

Image
Minnesota has historically prided itself on a large voter turnout. Typically we have been among the top few states in the nation with a large voter turnout. In addition, voter fraud has been extremely rare (26 cases out of hundred of thousands of voters last election!). Naturally, the MN GOP feels a need to address this pressing and overwhelming 'non-existing state problem' of lots of voters and a statistically non-existing voter fraud of less than 100th of a percent! The GOP propose to protect Minnesotans against this 'non-existing problem' by spending more of our tax dollars. They want to mandate voter IDs while adding ID machines to every vote location. Really?! What state are they living in? Has Minnesota become California? Where's the common sense in this kind of worthless legislation? What's not to love here...spending tax dollars on imaginary problems. Our State budget is in need of balancing with a projected 6 billion dollar deficit, jobs need to be cr...

Route 66: Illinois and Twinkies

Image
Currently I'm traveling down Route 66 with the odd side trip here and there...I'm blogging about my Mother Road adventure at The Grateful Muses blog but side trips and odd things that don't quite fit the travel log will get posted up here...like this one about Twinkies... Old Twinkies advertisement tin As Route 66 is America's Main Street, so are Twinkies America's snack cake. And guess what? Twinkies were invented in Illinois... Schiller Park in the 1930's. The inventor James Dewar realized that several machines used to make cream filled strawberry shortcake sat idle when the berries weren't in season. That's when he conceived a snack cake filled with a banana cream filling. He came up with the name Twinkies when he saw a billboard in St. Louis for 'Twinkle Toe Shoes....giving birth to 'Twinkies'. Due to the rationing of bananas during WWII, the company was forced to change the filling to vanilla cream...making them even more pop...
