As I recall, he just shrugged the question off. I don't think he is ever going to be able to list "leading by example" as one of his personal strengths. Chris--Let's wait to see what, if anything, happens as a result of the investigation. Remember, the U.S. Attorney got this from the Minnesota Attorney General's Office.

I thought Palouse was corrupting the U.S. Attorney’s Office. How can this be if they are investigating the chairman of the Republican Party?

I expect the GOP to react with the kind of professionalism that we expect from members of our party. That being said, I'd be real careful about making "honest days work for an honest dollar" comparisons between government workers and anyone else if I were you.

This guy would get my vote for moxy alone. Besides his political stance, he would probably help the MNGOP quite a bit by cutting his own salary in half, starting his own blog (!) and starting a Camp Wellstone copy: "Camp Reagan". GOP lurkers? Does this guy have a chance? I certainly hope so. A veteran canidate calling himself GOP-Joe who rides around in an army vehicle called “Joe’s Jeep”?
