More on Bell

Posted at 6:55 AM on July 12, 2006 by Mike Mulcahy

So much for the notion that a Senate primary will drain resources and energy from the general election campaign. Whether you plan to vote for her or not you have to admit that Amy Klobuchar has run quite a campaign so far. Remember all the names that were mentioned as possible DFL candidates when Mark Dayton announced in February of 2005 that he would not seek re-election? Klobuchar staked her claim on the seat early and now is the only DFLer in the field.

Here's her response to Bell's announcement:

“I am grateful for Ford Bell’s support. We’ve had our differences, but today we are united and determined to elect a Senator who will put the people of Minnesota first. I humbly invite Ford’s supporters to join our campaign for change in Washington and thank him for his great commitment to public service.”
