Tarryl Clark becomes latest Bachmann challenger

Democratic state Sen. Tarryl Clark has officially jumped into the race to challenge U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann.

"Washington isn't working for Minnesota families, and neither is Michele Bachmann," Clark said at a news conference Thursday at the State Capitol in St. Paul, flanked by family members and supporters. "I'll fight every day for people, not a political agenda."

Clark spent much of the news conference bashing Bachmann and did not mention by name her Democratic rival, Dr. Maureen Reed.

Clark depicted Bachmann, a Republican with a national profile, as pursuing a personal agenda — not the agenda of the 6th District.

“She (Bachmann) can go off and be a celebrity, but that’s not what people want,” said Clark.

This is not a district where I’d want to be running as a RAT in November.

LOL!! If the rats couldn’t win by drafting the mother of an abducted child who had more sympathy than anyone else in Minnesota, I don’t think this new Dem creature has much hope. But I do wish the Republicans would try as hard as the Democrats to uproot the rat reps in Minnesota.

Our budget is tight, but $25.00 is going out to Michele tomorrow.
