Shot in the Dark

Social Opportunity

Tim Walz was unable to cajole, emotionally manipulate or bully the MNGOP into a very special session on guns, to help him never waste the crisis of the Annunciation School shooting last month.  Go figure – the guy who is a walking symbol of tyranny and whose wife gets tingly at the smell of burning rubber wants to gut the amendment that makes being a tyrant risky. 

So he’s going to take the show on the road.

The “town halls” will no doubt follow the DFL’s format for these things perfected during the Obamacare “debate”; attendees will be screened for loyal membership in the DFL.

But I think a little tailgate party outside might be fun.  I haven’t organized anything like this in a while; I’m a little overdue.  

If the Governor starts scheduling these things in the Metro – and there’s not snowball’s chance on a Dominican beach limbo party that they’ll be anywhere but the Metro, Duluth or Kim Norton’s Rochester – it might be fun to have a little tailgate party outside.  

Hm.  

Check back.

    So, what does a townhall actually accomplish?

    JDM: A townhall raises two things: “Awareness” and campaign contributions.

    Yea, I’ve pointed out before how I was probably screened out of Kelly Morrison’s dog and pony shows. I guess responding negatively to her monthly “look at me! I’m a congress woman!” emails, put me on the banned list.

    I remember Betty(!) McCollum’s town halls.

    If you made it in past the union goons she employed as door men (I usually didn’t), she’d kick things off by lecturing the audience in proper etiquette. In other words, if we started asking her real questions, she gone.
