"Proponents of ObamaCare don't really care if they get something for nothing. However, insurance providers cannot supply something for nothing and stay viable..."
Okay - if our endorsed candidates don't capitalize on this issue, I might be tempted to take a "switch" to them! This un-forecasted event can only be called one thing - a gift horse. Both our candidates for Governor the U.S. Senate can make some hay on this issue. Since both are behind by double digits in the polls, it is time to step on the gas.
Truthfully, I have been a bit disappointed on how the campaigns have gone so far. They have been tepid at best. The local paper recently had an article on why our candidate for Governor (Jeff) is behind so far. He is a good man who has done good things. However, it is name recognition. People outside of Hennepin County know very little about Jeff. My suggestion is to wallpaper the countryside with campaign signs. Get on the air more. Most of all, make the case to the people of Minnesota for a change of leadership.
To be successful in any race, the case must be made for 1) why the incumbent should be fired and 2) why your candidate should be hired. I have not seen that yet. If I was running, I would go after the Governor hammer and tong. I would hang the Met Council around his neck. I would use Met Council's Thrive 2040 as a perfect excuse why under Dayton, we have collectivism has gone wild. I would explain the FREEDOMS we will lose with both MNSure and Thrive 2040. I would expose how many of the jobs created have been lower wage, part time jobs. Jeff always says we can do better. Lets show the folks how!
MNSure is the gift that keeps on giving. We need to open up that gift. MNSure has been a mess (and an expensive one) since the get go. And now, with the "loss leader" insurance company pulling out, rates are expected to skyrocket. We will get the real truth in early October when drapes are pulled back, and we see what the true insurance costs will be.
Mike on the other hand, has a different gift. Al was the 60th vote on ObamaCare. Period. I would tie in Al with not only the debacle of ObamaCare, but also every other cluster which this Administration is responsible for. NSA, IRS, Benghazi - all have Democratic finger prints. Al has a voting record which is shameful. He votes with the President 97% of the time (fact, not an estimate). Mike also needs to put in an order for a zillion signs to put up all over the place. Our CD6 office STILL does not have any signs!
Lets go team! The table has been set for us. We have the energy, now lets get to work. MNSure, ObamaCare, and Obama should be the keys to our victory in November. Now lets use those keys and get going!
