Judy Grundstrom, blogger at Just Judy Judy Judy, wrote a post today on her blog about MDE. The post began after we had a conversation on twitter where I asked her why Tarryl Clark (Judy hosted a fundraiser for Clark in Minneapolis on 12/3) liked to spend [...]
As President Obama held a jobs summit to produce ideas on how to deal with high unemployment, Working America held some jobs summits of our own, to give working people a chance to talk about what they've seen and experienced in this economy.

South Dakota War College, a political blog from South Dakota, picked up the story about Entenza’s fundraising event in Washington, DC. The post is below:
Remember this story from a couple of years ago? If I recall, I even blogged on it:
The secretary of state’s office has forwarded possible evidence [...]
Climategate is all the rage and well deserves to be. Scientific fraud on a scale unseen in our lifetimes. MC hasn't posted on it because of wall to wall coverage on other blogs and some media. Sunspots, however, receive less coverage but ought not to. True,' [...] How about instead of throwing our orinciples under the bus we grab the wheel and turn the bus around before it is too late?
No time for a new post this morning, but here is a comment/ response to one of the party elite defenders who trolls my blog that took [...]
Thursday afternoon, I participated in a blogger conference call with Assistant Minority Whip Rep. Kevin McCarthy and Rep. Thad McCotter. It was immediately understandable why Rep. McCotter is the Chairman of the Republican House Policy Committee.

Reading all the horse race-coverage of the 2010 campaign for governor, it’s striking to see how all the DFL candidates continue to use the same old playbook, with the same old directions: “Raise [...]
Minnesota bloggers have discovered that 1st Congressional District Republican candidate Jim Hagedorn appears to have sanitized his blog "Mr. Conservative" in advance of his announcement yesterday that he is running. Bluestem Prairie notes that it appears all entries prior to 2004 have been scrubbed.
Gov. Tim Pawlenty parried repeated questions from reporters Wednesday on his frequent out-of-state trips in light of dire warnings about Minnesota’s budget deficit.
