Democrat Ashwin Madia and Republican state Rep. Erik Paulsen fought one of the fiercest battles for a U.S. House seat this year, while Independence Party candidate David Dillon brought the lion’s share of the laughs to the 3rd Congressional District race. With the gritty contest ending today, maybe Ash and Erik can share a laugh over drinks sometime. In fact, they already have, as seen in this short clip from the candidate debate at Edina High last month. Video after the jump.

That’s weird, I thought Ashwin Madia was much more darkly complected. I wonder where I’d get that idea?

If Paulsen wins, I’m going to need a drink. His campaign was filthy. I did not agree with Jim Ramstad, but I respected him and (with the exception to his sexist debates against Wendy Wilde), I thought he was generally respectful to his opponents. Perhaps the equation is that Republican candidates are only respectful when they run with a serious advantage.
