Tuesday Bits N Pieces - Kline and Rowley

Well, eveyone knows I love to jump onto an already full bandwagon, so, despite the fact that we don't have a Coleen Rowley blogad, we're going to get into the game today, too.


Sponge posts his Agent for Change Ad and makes the 10x10 suggestion. I'm always a more 2x4 kind of girl, but for this I'll make an exception. Even worse, I'm going to make it one of those nasty chain things that everyone loves to get for a link, so I'm going to do my 10x10 online. I tag Tild, Smithers, Blankout, PZ, Bobby, Spot, Flash, Tom, MNObs and of course THE WEGE. I won't know if you don't donate or let the chain die, but God will.

MNCR, who also is flying an ad, proves he's not a Towles (heh) and explains why he's paying some more attention to the race.

The Rowley effort has been lost in the shuffle, what with all the excitement surrounding the new AG's race, the Walz effort in CD1 becoming a solid pickup opportunity, and the impending women-only nuclear war in CD6. This should not be. Team Rowley has worked hard to update their website, incorporate a campaign blog, keep momentum moving, and build a ravenous volunteer army across CD2.

Interesting Kline Fact: Did you know that he was the Vice President of the Center for the American Experiment? Ah, yes, the Katherine Kersten years.(Sorry, no live link)

And a fun article he wrote during those days...

There is much talk of returning to Iraq to "finish the job." If we are victorious in these efforts, will the war be over? Who knows? Probably not.
