Ember/DFL dispute not over

Posted at 11:02 AM on July 26, 2006 by Tom Scheck (1 Comments)

The issue involving Ember Reichgott Junge's use of DFL on billboards, e-mails, etc. isn't over. An evidentiary hearing will be held next week to hear the complaint. Here's a link to the administrative law judge's ruling saying they can proceed on the matter. The DFL Party says Minnesota law says Reichgott Junge shouldn't be using just the letters DFL on her billboards, website or e-mails because she isn't the endorsed candidate. The law says she can use "DFL affiliated," "member of DFL" etc. but can't use the letters "DFL." State Representative Keith Ellison has the party's endorsement.

I feel it is pitiful that DFL people pick on each other when the real enemy is FIne, Kennedy and Pawlenty.
To me DFL just means she is a democrat
it does not mean she is endorsed

If you want to pick on someone who will bring the party to its needs in November pick on Keith Ellison
He has multiple traffic citations he did not pay
He lost his license because of this
He did not pay his filing fee on time and blamed his wife. MS has nothing to do with paying a filing fee.
Also he blamed his wife's fault he did not pay his parking tickets and speeding tickets.
He Lost his drivers license becuase of these violations
He has properties in the city that he was cited on for not taking care of them
He has a history of irresponsibility
He lost the endorsement of my Democratic State representative because he no longer could be associated with such an irresponsible person so he would not loose in his primary election for state senator in district 45

Keith Ellison will bring down AMY AND MIKE

I was a delegate for CLinton in 1992
I saw how the far left tried to do a coup on Sabo.
I sat in the government center till 3 am
This year the ultra far left brought us Ellison duirng a non presidential sleepy year.
I was a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 2000. I am supporting Ember because she is the best qualified candidate.

I have been to over 500 house working for her door to door and people are asking why did the democrats do such a thing. I have to explain that the far left took over the convention and Ellison ans his supporters do not really represent 99% of the democrats out there.

THe far left is going to bring this party down this year
Wait till the Kennedy and PAwlenty adds after September focusing on wwhat kind of party endorses a candidate who has his background.

If Ellison wins, you may have an historical first because FIne may just win in the 5th district and Kennedy and Pawlenty will surely win

The democrats put an irresponsible candidate with a very poor back ground in an important position and then they beat up on other democrats

THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP IS MORE OF AN ENEMY TO ITSELF THAN THE REPUBLICANS CAN EVER BE TO THEM

I AM ROYALLY PISSED AT THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP
to push a totally irresponsible person on our district who will never get anything done in Washington
