Dear Friends,
I am writing to let you know that I have decided to
support Dorian Eder for State Representative. I, like
you, have been frustrated with the direction our State
and Nation are heading. And I, like you, am ready to
fight for change.
Dorian is a committed progressive leader who will
challenge Republican attacks and half-truths. She�s
been an advocate for domestic-violence supporters for
years. A lifelong DFLer, Dorian can connect with our
DFL roots while reaching out to the new Northeasters
who have discovered what a wonderful place our
neighborhoods are to raise their families.
I trust Dorian to represent Northeast because she�s an
example of the best of what Northeast has to offer � a
smart, progressive woman who can speak truth to power
and is not afraid of hard work.
We all know that the DFL has had a difficult couple of
years. And if we want to survive as a Party, we need
to change the way we work internally as well as grow
our membership. That�s why Dorian�s such a great
choice for Northeast. She knows how to stand up to
Republican attacks and fight for our future. She�s
not afraid to advocate for change within the Party.
And she�ll bring that fighting spirit � the spirit of
Humphrey and Mondale� back into the DFL.
So much is at stake in this election. If George Bush
manages to steal another election, who knows how far
back he�ll try to take this country. And we�ve
already seen what a Pawlenty Administration means for
Minnesota � fewer jobs, fewer services, and pandering
to the radicals at the Taxpayer�s League. If we want
to stop these threats to the Minnesota Miracle, we�ve
got to stand up and fight.
We need a leader with energy. We've spent too many
elections picking leaders based on name recognition or
who waited in line the longest � and now it�s time for
us to develop the DFL leaders who will lead us into
victory in the years ahead.
Dorian is the candidate that will bring the DFL into
the future, while connecting with our proud past.
She�s the candidate who will fight for progressive
values and not take a single vote for granted. She�s
a candidate who will represent Northeast, both old and
new. That�s why I�m supporting Dorian Eder for State
Representative, and I hope you do the same.
Yours,
Patrick
