I just got back from MCing the MN Fourth District GOP Fundraising dinner tonight. In addition to the traditional silent auction, we had a very appropriate motivational speaker – he spoke about “resilience”, which is something Fourth CD Republicans get a lot of practice with. If you get a chance to see Roger Revak speak, do it. Just saying.
We also met some great people; Gubernatorial candidates Senator Dave Hann, Representative Tom Emmer and former State Auditor Pat Anderson came by, as well as a slew of local and district candidates.
It was a lot of fun, which the Fourth is always good at. Things are tough in the Fourth – but I have a hunch better days are coming. The DFL is doing a bad enough job that everntually even the voters’ll figure it out.
By way of disclosure – I got dinner. And it was yummy.
You were selected to MC a silent auction? How, in pantomime?
For a guy with your speaking experience, isn’t that a back-handed compliment, like having a face for radio?
