Poor little Erik Paulsen, damned if he does, damned if he doesn't

I occasionally amuse myself by checking out Paulsen's Facebook page. There are a few people who take him to task and make clear they hope he doesn't get sent back to Washington. A couple posters were asking him almost on a daily basis when he was going to renounce Trump.

Since he did announce he wouldn't vote for Trump, he has a lot more irate Trump supporters announcing they won't be voting for him than he ever had DFLers doing that. I almost feel sorry for --- well, not really.

Her ads have been pretty lousy, and she hasn't fired back at his attacks. The ridiculous one blaming her for turning a 2 billion surplus into a 6 billion deficit - no, that was PAWLENTY's budget, dumbasses. Ugh.

Bonoff was up by 2 points, but that was in the margin of error.

I haven't seen anything more recent.
