Walter Mondale endorses Tarryl Clark to challenge Michele Bachmann

[Minnesota Raindog]

:toast:

Way to go Tarryl! From an email to supporters:

Together, we’ve supported causes and campaigns over the years, many of them near and dear to our hearts. But few campaigns present us with the opportunity to make as significant a change as in Minnesota’s 6th Congressional District.

That’s why I’m supporting Tarryl Clark in her campaign for Congress. And I hope you’ll join me today.

I believe that Tarryl Clark can lead the 6th District in a new direction. She will unite us behind positive solutions – a stark change from the controversial comments and partisan rancor we’ve seen over the past few years. She will focus her time and efforts on listening to her constituents and turning ideas into action.

She’s already done it here in Minnesota. Tarryl is a vigorous campaigner and a tireless leader in the Minnesota Senate.

As a community advocate and then as a State Senator, Tarryl has always stood up for Minnesota’s working families. From raising the minimum wage to ensuring our seniors aren’t scammed by predatory lenders; from ensuring access to early childhood education to investing in our state’s treasured colleges and universities; from strengthening reintegration services for our returning veterans to building our transportation infrastructure, Tarryl has always fought for our families and our communities.

I’m proud to call Tarryl my friend, and I know that she will make a tremendous Member of Congress.

But to get there, she needs your support today.

I hope you will join me in supporting Tarryl’s campaign for Congress. Your contribution of $250, $100, $50, or whatever you can afford will help ensure Tarryl’s campaign is off to a strong start.

Minnesota has a long tradition of electing people with a deep-rooted belief in public service. Tarryl Clark will continue that tradition, and I ask you to join me in supporting her campaign.

Sincerely,



Walter F. Mondale

1. I would endorse a ham sandwich over Michelle Bachmann

What do you think, does Taryl have a shot at unseating the Clown Princess of Congress?

2. Too bad Michelle gutted the 6th CD GOP woodwork

so nobody is going to dare challenge her in the GOP Caucuses. It is one thing to have a Republican representing the 6th, it is another to have Bachmann.

3. Tarryl is the only Dem who has a chance at winning the 6th

And she is politically savvy enough that I don't think she would have run unless she thought she could win.

I've signed up to be a monthly donor because I have faith she will run a forceful, competitive campaign. Unlike we've seen in the past.
