Re: MN 5th District Candidate On Our Side
That was probably just a vent on this whole moral issue thing about online gambling and the hypocrisy of it. As far as Minnesota voting goes, I did vote for Ventura in 1998 and I think it sent a good message. In 2002, I voted Pawlenty (I tend to vote Republican for the perceived fiscal conservative nature), however, the litmus test of having MCCL approval in order to be a member of the Republican party has turned me away from them. If I lived in the 5th district I would vote for Lee as well. I was a Hutchison supporter but this whole Republican reaming has me for the first time voting against candidates rather then for them. As much as I dislike Hatch, I am focusing my vote this year against Republicans. I have actually become vocal this year even among my more 'Republican' friends about how the R's have taken that next step of legislating inside my house. I may not have convinced all of my friends to vote Democratic this year, but I know they are thinking about what I have said.
Lets hope Ellison hears and supports the message we are sending.
