Clark likens Cravaack to Bachmann

It's 2010 all over again.

Or so it would seem from a fundraising email sent by Democrat Tarryl Clark to supporters today.

Clark likens GOP Rep. Chip Cravaack to Rep. Michele Bachmann - the lawmaker Clark lost to last year in her bid to represent Minnesota's 6th district in Congress.

In the email, Clark accused Cravaack of doing nothing to create jobs in the 8th district, where Clark moved earlier this year as a first step toward trying to unseat Cravaack.

Here's part of Clark's pitch:

"Cravaack's actions are no surprise. He's been a supporter of Michele Bachmann's agendas since he got to Congress, and creating more problems for seniors and families - never solving them - is a page right out of her book."

"With Bachmann running for President it's clear that Chip Cravaack has become her heir apparent in Congress."

Can YOU believe this?

Democrat Tarryl Clark has just predicted her election loss in Nov 2012.

Clark likens GOP Rep. Chip Cravaack to Rep. Michele Bachmann SO SHE WILL LOST HER ELECTION TO CHIP CRAVAARK as she lost to Backmann.

How stupid is that?
