Lean on Tony

Too bad Tony couldn’t get his own Governor Walker, Tom Emmer, elected so that Tom could outrage a quarter of the state and then go around the nation collecting big money from Right to Work fanatics to save himself from a recall.

Sutton just gave all his good buds money the Minnesota GOP didn’t have.

Evidently small donors and Governor Pawlenty who ended the political contribution refund are to blame for Tony’s problems:

Sutton said the party’s problems were a result of poor fundraising from donors who gave in small amounts. He said the elimination of the state’s Political Contribution Refund was a drain on the party’s coffers. That state program, which was eliminated in 2009, allowed donors to claim a tax refund of $50 when they contributed to political parties.

BTW. I chose the word of the day before reading this story.

PS. I love the Joe Clark photo.
