Emily's B-List - When Becky Lourey lost the DFL nomination to Roger Moe, some of her supporters protested bitterly. It was as if winning the governorship was less important than fielding a woman canidate. Any woman candidate.
It's not a localized problem. The pro-death group Emily's List exists to find big liberal money,and funnel it to candidates who are pro-female-choice on the abortion issue. They also swipe at the NRA, in the process.
And it's backfiring. Emily's List seems to be weakening Democratic candidacies - and not winning many races of its own.
