Re:\u00a0 Public Image? Limited!<\/p>\n

Dear Ms. Clark,<\/p>\n

You’re running for Congress in the Sixth Congressional District.\u00a0 It’s a fairly conservative district with some fairly liberal enclaves.\u00a0 It’s obviously a district in major contention – but Michele Bachmann, the most unrepentant conservative in Minnesota politics, squeedged out a three point margin against not only Elwin “E-Tink” Tinklenberg, but against a full court press from the mainstream media, the liberal cableocracy, and the nutroots.<\/p>\n

Which says to me – though I am, I’ll grant, merely a simple peasant – that the Sixth is probably not a mother lode for nutroots campaigning.<\/p>\n

So please, Ms. Clark; please please please <\/em>keep campaigning away on Daily Kos<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 I sincerely beg of you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
