Norm Coleman (R) isn't expected to make a decision on the 2010 governor's race until next year but a [...]
Two DFL candidates registered campaign committees with the Minnesota Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board this week to challenge two prominent state Senate Republicans.
Gregory A. French of Byron seeks to unseat Senate Minority Leader David Senjem, R-Rochester, in Senate District 29, and Ron Case of Eden Prairie is challenging Assistant [...]

Over Republicans’ charges of political gamesmanship, the state House Rules Committee this morning agreed to issue a friend-of-the-court brief opposing Gov. Tim Pawlenty’s budget cutting unallotments earlier this summer.
The resolution passed on a 14-8 party-line vote.
The move won’t make the House a plaintiff in the complaint filed in Ramsey [...]
Via Minnesota Independent, the Cook Political Report ranks the 3rd and 6th districts vulnerable for Republicans.
MNPublius looks at our budget and sees no help from the unallotment.

Much has been made about the cost of the various healthcare bills moving (or hopefully NOT moving) through Congress. Democrats keep trying to say that their bills "will not add one dime to the deficit" as President Obama has promised (for what that is worth) while Republicans continue to point out that the [...]

Yesterday I railed on how the left is trying to fool Americans into thinking that abortion is already an entitlement (similar to how they claim Republicans are trying to take away the rights of homosexuals to marry, they can’t currently….. don’t get me started)
Well, take a look at the utter[...]

Senate Democrats are salivating at the prospect of attacking Republicans in 2010 who voted against an anti-rape amendment sponsored by Al Franken, reports Politico. The provision, which was supported by 68 senators, would prevent the Department of Defense from contracting with [...]

The buck that Gov. Pawlenty shot on Saturday apparently didn’t die, but neither has the story about him leaving the woods near Thief River Falls for a speech to Iowa Republicans without having successfully tracked the deer. “The buck apparently didn’t stop anywhere,” reads one [...]
When I read Ms. Marcus’s Washington Post op-ed, my first reaction was to wonder if she’s shooting for Linda Douglass’s job as WH health care propaganda minister. Her accusation that Republicans unjustifiably used scare tactics was quickly ‘backed up’ with criticizing the House GOP’s arguments:
