Meet The Candidates
Twin Cities ABC-TV affiliate KSTP has been giving free airtime to local candidates this election season; all the videos can be found here. The videos for the three candidates for Minnesota's Fifth Congressional District (which contains Minneapolis and the northern suburbs) aired last night. Democratic candidate Keith Ellison's video shows him to be poised, articulate, professional, and firm, all the sort of things you'd hope to find in a Congressional candidate. Former Sabo staffer Tammy Lee, now running under the Independence Party banner, is also poised and articulate and professional. But Alan Fine is a complete and total joke. Seriously. I know that the Republicans have no hope of winning the seat, but you'd think that they could have found someone a tad more prepared or capable of running for the United States Congress.
