** This thread discusses the content article: GOP HD 17B: Bring the mud **

Sheldon Anderson's butt is being bitten and he's a big crybaby. His campaigns of the past locally and in St Paul have always been nothing more than mudslinging. He's known in the political arena as one of the worst and dirtiest. Now he's crying that its all coming back to bite him in his behind? Are we tired of his crybaby antics yet?

In my study of this 17b endorsement process I have found that the only mud being mixed on the 17b campaign trail is the mud being stirred up by Mr. Sheldon Anderson, a recipe that includes false accusations, innuendo, and character assassination. The truth of the matter for any who were not present at several public candidate debate forums held prior to the April endorsement convention is that Bob Barrett's responses to questions were on target and on more than one occasion answered by candidate Anderson and I quote " well, I agree with Bob" and their is video tape in the county that would attest and prove this beyond doubt. The sour grapes we are witnessing on the part of Mr. Anderson is due to Mr. Anderson's character which hosts a insatiable appetite for personal political power. I think folks of Chisago county 17b are more interested in electing a person of high moral and ethical character, a man not connected to any political machinery and who possesses a thorough understanding of the difficult financial issues which currently take center stage in Minnesota's future response to tax and spend policies. Mr. Bob Barrett has not been involved in politics as usual, holds a bachelor degree in accounting, and has worked for over 10 years in the private sector as a executive director for Hazeldon of Center CIty, Minnesota. I believe Mr. Barrett won the endorsement of Republican delegates of Chisago County because he was the best candidate for the time, and quite honestly the time for a man such as Bob Barrett to take up the difficult work in the Minnesota legislature has never been so critical.

no mud here, only a plethora of Bob enthusiasm, the Forest Lake Parade was the Hit Parade!
