Coleman supporters defraud local papers with campaign
distributed materials.

On January 25th the Minnesota Daily published a letter to the editor from Abul-Rahman Magba-Kamara, chairman of the UMN College Republicans. The letter’s a bit too long to post in the body here, but you can find the whole text below the fold or on the paper’s site here. But, just to give you a taste, here’s the first paragraph:

Al Franken’s traveled around the state to college campuses trying to get the votes of young people. He has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on television commercials trying to portray himself as a nice guy. He even enlisted his fourth-grade teacher to give a testimonial about what a nice boy he was in elementary school.

1. More Republican Lies
http://www.twincities.com/allheadlines/ci_8439505?nclick_check=1

Republicans launch ads criticizing DFLers for raising taxes



Once again, Republicans spew lies which say that Dems increased taxes when, as everybody knows, they were raised by the GOP.

So what are the Dems going to do about it? Sit back and allow the lies to continue? Or will they fight back with the truth??
