On Saturday, Republicans in Minnesota's 1st Congressional District endorsed state Rep. Randy Demmer to challenge DFL Rep. Tim Walz.

I'm posting the speech he gave just before he was endorsed by acclamation. Listen

Republicans Marty Seifert and Tom Emmer, who are both vying for the GOP endorsement for governor, also spoke at the event.

Here's Seifert's speech: Listen

Here's Emmer's speech: Listen

Update: Gov. Pawlenty's Freedom First PAC is backing Demmer for Congress. His spokesman, Alex Conant, says the PAC will give $2400 to Demmer's campaign.

You can't hear my speech from the Republican CD1 convention because they wouldn't let me speak.
CD1, SD41, Medtronics, AFSCME, Minnesota Lobbyists, Chambers of Commerce, Wright County Republicans, and others, are so afraid of me that they won't let their members hear what I have to say.
That won't last much longer.
Yours for freedom and liberty,
Leslie Davis for Governor 2010
