Door knocking for Margaret
A young man just knocked on my door and asked me to vote for Margaret in the primary.

I had to tell him that I'm still in Dayton's corner for now but I was happy to see him out working for his candidate.


Let's win back the Governor's seat!!

2. yep.
Whoever wins the primary will get my vote in the General election.

I'm not big on Entenza but if he wins the primary, i will vote for him.

7. Entenza is a sleazy bought-and-paid-for tool.
HOWEVER, I would walk across broken glass to vote for him if he's the primary winner just to vote against Troglodyte Emmer.

8. I've heard that many times and have no reason to doubt it
But his ads are the most impressive ones as far as I'm concerned.

Don't know what to make of that.

9. His ads worry me because they are so slick
and I can see how voters who make their decisions based on ads would fall for them.

I even like the one where he says they'd do away with NCLB, but I have to wonder if that can be done without losing Federal funds for schools.

11. MAK and Entenza can't win in November, Dayton can
I have a hard time seeing how MAK or Entenza can win in November. MAK has serious character issues, very serious character issues, and so does Entenza. MAK simply does not have the restraint, self control and leadership abilities required for high public office. Ditto for Entenza.

When I talk to others about MAK and Entenza, I cannot find anyone who actually likes either MAK or Entenza. Instead I hear comments such as "Ick".

10. I'm in Dayton's corner as well
(Though originally I was for John Marty) But if he loses the primary and either MAK or Entenza wins, they'll have as much of my support as Dayton has.

Any one of the three is loads better than Emmer, and I'll do what I can to make sure they're elected.

12. In this particular race, I plan to vote for whichever Dem is polling the highest at election time
Emmer needs to be stopped.
