Who were you laughing at Molly. The DFL Party? The DFL activists work worked hard for their endorsed candidate. I only every Minnesotan had the luxury developing honing their political skills will spending their inherited family fortune. I wish Senator Dayton well, but he's gonna have to do more than donate his paychecks to pay for charter bus rides to Canada to gain my vote of confidence. Dennis Hill St. Paul DFL'er

Tim:
I'm glad to hear your insight into the Stonewall endorsement process. However, if you're going to take into consideration whether or not a candidate stands a "serious" chance at getting elected, I'm wondering if you're endorsing too soon. RT's campaign is picking up some serious momentum and is coming off a HUGE and stunning upset at the convention this past Saturday. Alas, you endorsed Sharon a while back when RT was only just getting up and running. Although I'm sure you took other things into consideration while making your decision, it concerns me that this could have placed RT and other future candidates(especially challengers)at an unfair disadvantage.
I speak from experience...about one year ago, I went to work for a US Senate candidate that pretty much EVERYONE thought was a noncontender and it was a battle to get any endorsements or support. I got the last laugh though, when everyone else finally jumped on the Mark Dayton bandwagon.
