Turns out the pastor can't even vote for Bachmann anyway: He lives in the third district and has been registered there since 1994. (which the church is located in as well, although it is close to the sixth).

I'm sure this was just an honest mistake and he wasn't trying to exploit what he believed was a tax law loophole. Oh no. He simply completely forgot about Jim Ramstad who he's been voting for since 1994 and believed he had somehow been moved to the sixth district.

Murphy won't be a member but Bachmann will. There is a reason why I am acting like an asshole with the MN 6 race.

Bachman will not win, Wetterling will, asshole.....and what is the reason you're acting like an asshole with th MN-06 race?

I wish I did live in the sixth so I could vote for Wetterling, its the one race in this state I really care about.  (Klobuchar I'm not worried about, and Hatch, eh....)  As it is, I live in the fifth, and I'm not voting for Keith Ellison....I made my decision today to vote for Tammy Lee.

I'd vote for Lee too. I read about Ellison's restraining order deal today in the STrib. He's unfit for Congress.

Hopefully he has a strong primary challenger in 2008 when I will live there, if so I will vote for that challenger.

I like how she manages to describe the Republican as "rabid" without coming off as pretentious or even insulting.

No one really disagrees with her. She's not attacking him for his views, the guy's hardly an extreme conservative, he's basically a RINO actually. But after Ellison's nomination he gave a speech which was rather racist condemning him and since then has pretty much ran an entirely Islamophobic campaign. And now there's allegations coming out that he beat his girlfriend, while she was pregnant to boot.

Like I said, neither major party candidate is fit for office. Maybe Lee will run in the primary in 2008 as a Democrat (which she really is) or someone else trying to appeal to the 59% of primary voters who didn't vote for Ellison. Whoever does has my vote.

Ahh..

While I do not live in the 6th, I will be voting in the 6th, becasue this is where I go to school.  And as much as that annoys Republicans: TOO BAD.

I don't think Bachmann will win.  The democrats in this district hate her so much.  They are incredibly energized to go out and vote for Wetterling.  Also, Wetterling leads the independent vote.  And, if I'm not mistaken, the Republicans only have a 1 point advantage over hte Demos in this district.

So, as much of an orgasm the GOP would have if Bachmann were elected, she won't be.  Have you heard her speak?  She's a whacked out crazy.  The two reasons I have become a solid democrat:  Michelle "I'm really just a crazy whacko right-wing Xtian" Bachmann and Mark "I seem like a nice guy, but if you look me in the eyes you will see the cold anger and hate that just pours out of me" Kennedy.

Where do you go to school? St. Cloud?
