Dayton Already Running From His Past

Well the DFL finally figured out who their candidate is for Governor, and they picked Mark Dayton. Also know as \”The Blunderer\”….seriously, that\’s what Time magazine called him back when he was in the Senate…they also called him the worst Senator in America. In response to winning the primary, Mark Dayton got so excited he promptly closed his campaign office for a month.
Well the MN GOP promptly released an ad introducing the new DFL nominee to Minnesota. That shouldn\’t be a surprise, we\’ve been seeing Mark Dayton\’s family spending millions on anti-Emmer ads for weeks now. But now the MN GOP is finally answering back with an ad that scored an A- on the KSTP Truth Test….unlike the famous anti-Emmer ad by Alliance for a Better Minnesota (aka Dayton family front group) which scored an F.
Of course Dayton is denouncing this as a smear….not sure what part of quoting past news articles about him, he considers smearing. Sounds like Dayton is already starting a pattern of running from his past. And when it\’s pretty true that past performance predicts future performance, that\’s not good for Minnesota.

I’m glad to see that the GOP didn’t waste time defining Dayton. The DFL has had a nice little game going on for the past three months, but play time is over and now they are stuck with Dayton.

It’s all about learning how to conjugate nouns: I “report”, he “smears.”
I learned this when I was a new parent. My daughter “did something cute.” My wife’s daughter “has full pants.”
