		<description>Here is Jim&#039;s campaign slogan.

    &quot;It may be unpalatable to push the button or pull the lever for a Republican this year, but the choice is not to flush the party of business down the toilet,&quot;

 &quot;As bad as the Republican Party has gotten itself, what&#039;s the choice?&quot;--Jim Hagdorn

		<description>&quot;“Leave it to liberals to ruin John Wayne’s wisdom of the only good Indian being a dead Indian”&quot;

Ah, so we have a racist running for office now?  I&#039;m willing to bet though he&#039;s strong on &quot;family values.&quot;

Haven&#039;t we had enough of the Beck, Limbaugh, drooling tea bagger, Palin sickness already?

Where are the responsible, thinking, educated conservatives?  They&#039;re now independents.</description>

		<description>Ah, yes, the &quot;greatness of America&quot; experienced under George Bush.  Staggering deficits.  Jobs going offshore.  Endless wars of choice put on the charge card.  Billions of dollars disappear in Iraq while tens of thousands die.  Pat Tillman victimized by craven military and complicit administration.  Enron.  Worldcom.  Blackwater.  Halliburton.  Goldman Sachs, Citicorp, Morgan.  Foreclosures,  Bankruptcies.  Yes Mr. Hagedorn, I&#039;m sure you long for the &quot;greatness of America&quot; under the President and Congress you supported since 2000.  

We owe you a debt of gratitude for your votes and support of the previous administration.  We are glad you want to bring back those days.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t disagree with our path to socialism. However, the contention that there is one iota of difference between Dems and Pubs these days is laughable. Only the lists of corporate benefactors are different between the two, and even that yields few differences when scrutinized. The idea there is a &quot;choice&quot; for voters in this two party fascist ruse is only there to pit Americans against one another. 
Call me a crackpot. Call me a conspiracy junky. I care not. Representative democracy left the building long ago.</description>

		<description>Um, Republican Party?  If y&#039;all are panicking over the fact that your candidates for MN-01 for the past couple of cycles have been more clown car candidates than persons one would want to entrust with higher office, it really doesn&#039;t behoove you to find a guy who spouts the same clown-car rhetoric the others did.</description>
