Randy Kelly lost in the Bushes

Kelly was pummeled tonight. He lost because he endorsed Bush, plain and simple. This is as it should be. An endorsement of Bush, no matter how heartfelt, is an endorsement of policies that are bad for our citizens. How about a nice dish of sweet short term gain in exchange for a big cup of steaming long term misery? No thanks. Bush's policies have put every Minnesota citizen under the economic gun. Thanks to our Nincompoop in Chief's profligate spending, there is now a $27,000 birth tax on every newborn. Minnesota's share of the cost of the war in Iraq is now over $5 billion dollars. St. Paul's slice of that pie nets out to about $245 million. Oh...Is that what you stand for Mr. Kelly? See you later.

Just curious Chuck,

Was that what you said when Bush was elected and re-elected?

i probably said something like... the country is deeply divided, and something smells fishy in Ohio.

this, on the other hand, was a clear landslide!

if anyone still wonders what the definition of a mandate means, this, despite what Bush tried to say last year, IS a mandate. Last year, Bush's 'victory' was the closest 'reelection' of a sitting president in history. He tried to say he had "political capital" and that he had a mandate, he can just add those to all the other things he has been wrong about. Chris Coleman, and it seems RT Rybak have actually won a mandate. We Democrats, I guess, still seem to care what the meaning of words actually mean.
