Well, maybe not the DFL as a whole!!
The MNGOP released a great statement today quoting a very influential DLF'er from Rochester.
The quote is:
“And Rochester DFL icon A.M. (Sandy) Keith, a former state senator, lieutenant governor and chief justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court, has already swung his support to Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty. ‘I love the guy; he can stay at my house if he wants to,’ said Keith, now executive director of the Rochester Downtown Alliance. Pawlenty, Keith said, has done more for Rochester than any governor since DFLer Rudy Perpich.” (Conrad deFiebre, “DFL Poised To Meet In Rochester,” Star Tribune, June 8, 2006)
Now I do not expect to see the same from the hippie fest happening in Rochester this weekend, this quote is brilliant for the Republicans to use to their advantage. Most Minnesotans recognize the great direction this state has been going and will not buy into the doom and gloom of the DFL!!
