Hidden Life of Conservatives

DFL running for the hills

As the election results come in from Massachusetts it is apparent that Scott Brown will be the new Senator. Some in the media are calling it "The Scott heard 'round the world!" And on January 26th in Minnesota Senate district 26, we will hear another shot, as Mike Parry wins the special election for Senator Day's seat. The DFL and Brian Melendez belong to the party of bankrupt ideas. They can no longer connect with the man on the street and they know this. They realize that their message is falling on deaf ears and as an act of desperation, they are resorting to sleazy tactics and out right lies to try and smear the GOP candidate. They call him a "racist" for having a difference of opinion with the President, yet these are the same people who will protect Reid and Clinton for having said real racist and insensitive comments about President Obama. I work on Mike's campaign, I am of mixed heritage, Mexican-American to be exact, pretty sure he is not a racist.

The other slander against Mr. Parry is that he is a "homophobe." In one of his early tweets he states "Whats with the Dems and pedophiles?" Nothing homophobic about that statement, and more likely a comment on the Roman Polanski escapade than the Matthew Shepard act. And what's with the Democrats, like Whoopi Goldberg, Debra Winger and Woody Allen supporting a despicable child rapist? How can the DFL even defend their position by siding with this type of scum? And even worse, it was the DFL liberal bloggers that made the leap from "pedophile" to "homophobe." Is the DFL and their liberal blogging attack dogs suggesting that all pedophiles are homo-sexuals? The DFL should apologize immediately to the Gay and Lesbian community for making such unfounded accusations and disparaging generalizations.

This discussion should be about one thing, and one thing only, the issues. Do you get that DFL and Brian Melendez, the ISSUES. The issues are what the people in district 26 want to talk about. They want to talk about the over spending at the State Capitol. They want to discuss having better educational options for their children. They want to discuss jobs and taxes, and transportation and health and human services, etc, etc. And guess which candidate is focusing on the issues? Guess which candidate has a real plan for change? Guess which candidate is used to creating jobs and signing paychecks instead of receiving them....Mike Parry. It is no coincidence that at each candidate forum, the other two opponents are trying to make their message sound more and more like Mike Parry's. And the reason for this is that Mike's message is the one that resonates with the voters in this district. But don't worry DFL, after the 26th, you will have about 10 months to work on your new message. Preferably one that places an emphasis on the issues. But with a leftist fanatic like Brian Melendez at the helm, chances are you'll stick with what you know, lies, mud-slinging and bankrupt ideas from a small thinker.
