After Aplikowski gave the racist interview “punking” the Minnesota Monitor, I called Brad Biers and Pam Wolf - both in his district to get comment, and to see whether they still wanted him representing their district. I also called Aplikowski for comment. At that time, they still wanted him representing the district.

gopgal,
How about Ron Carey endorsing the Huckster while serving as Party Chair? Has he issued a statement of support for your presumptive nominee, or is he more interested in appealing to the Evangelical power base of MN party, no matter what the cost? Conservatives booing and hissing at the the Republican standard bearer yesterday can’t be good for your side.

Andy needs to resign from any and all leadership posts in the party or local units. If he is not going to support party candidates and just throw stones then he should be relegated to being nothing at all. No one likes him anyways, get the hell out of the party where you are making it pretty clear that you will not be supporting the senate candidate or the presidential candidate.

Andy Aplikowski is off the wall sometimes. However he’s on the mark sometimes. That post gels with what I’ve been hearing and also gels with what I’ve read on some other conservative blogs. The NARN radio people won’t say this sort of thing publicly because they want access.

Jason Lewis says very similar things, though I hear him rip on Pawlenty much more than he rips on Coleman.

Well, Andy picks another one that goes down in the dust.

Fred’s Dead, Mitts on the Fritz, don’t ‘like Mike’ and Johnny’s their nominee.

I know, I know, it’s only Triple A but, he is an elected officer of their party and two candidates he bashed all along are the last two standing.

Maybe we can get him to cast a vote for Obama.

The local GOPers will do the:

“We gotta be ‘Minnesota Nice’; the whole world will be watchin’ us in St. Paul! Can’t ya just pretend we’re all friends? Come over here and sing ‘Kum Ba Yah’, won’t ya?”

With Mitt Romney now out ofm the race, it will be McCain’s nomination hands down. Mike Huckabee is the only other GOP candidate left standing. He will be out by next week.

So perhaps TPaw and Coleman do have the last laugh afterall.

You have to love this reasoning:

“They showed up to express their discontent with the Republican establishment and media for anointing a candidate who the base opposes.”

Can any non-insane observer really believe that McCain is the Republican establishment candidate? Or maybe “establishment and media” are code-words for “voters”.

Yeah, but it is Andy Apilowski, so you have to take it with a grain of salt. I think MNPublius and MDE can agree on that.
