Our Revolution Minnesota needs to get its stuff together.

Endorsement page.

Removal of Leah Phifer, okay, she's declined to move to a primary and there will be one.

However, Jeff Erdmann is still posted, and he conceded and endorsed Craig. He said all along he'd abide, and he did.

Something smells of over-sensitivity to "Stronger Together" and that's the tune of the corporatist bloc.

That operation needs to endorse for the CD8 primary and to get behind Craig in CD2.

Craig is a progressive, on the issues, and while Erdmann remains a fine person, for crying out loud Craig's seeking a seat Jason Lewis holds.

Jason.

Lewis.

Who are these people and why are they tardy?

And whether there is a CD8 vote from there for the Emmer-Nolan career inner-party campaign worker with no private sector part to the resume, or for Lee who has worked in the private sector for most of her career and is a clear progressive, make a decision, folks.

Same old, same old, what?

Certainly Nolan did back Bernie, which was good, but aside from that Emmer is not exactly My Revolution. Indeed, Ian Todd is endorsed by Our Revolution in CD6, so Emmer is not exactly Their Revolution either. What's the politics at play there?


UPDATE: Some effort needs to be exerted to make a Blue Wave happen, and if it is to have any real progressive dimension, reasonable progressive responsive effort would be a part of the formula.

Leah Phifer is a good person who got hung out to dry.
