I would like to invite Hal to browse over to the www.mnpatriots.com website and publicly debate the GOP candidate on the 10 topics I selected during the GOP nominating process. The comments section is open to all respectful guests. My recent post CPI Adjusted Budget

I must object to the false and misleading statement presented by Tom. While the first five quotes are absolutely true, the last one "We must somehow get the unionization of state workers to be illegal. There is no reason for government employees to unionize.” is false. As webmaster for the www.mnpatriots.com website, I can assure the readers here that this did not, and does not appear on any of the responses provided by any of the GOP's 4 Senate 18 candidates. I would further invite Tom and others to go to the website and post comments in opposition. Any and all respectful comments will be posted. My recent post CPI Adjusted Budget

He is some of statements that the People running against Hal gave.
http://mnpatriots.com/
“I would definitely want to provide leadership to convert the state’s pension system from “defined benefit” to a “defined contribution” plan.”
“I definitely would support elimination of the corporate income tax as well as the separate corporation taxation. I also believe in a real simplification of taxes in general. I don’t believe income should be taxed at all.”
“I absolutely support the elimination of the “prevailing wage” rules.”
“Yes I support the elimination of all business subsidies.”
“We must somehow get the unionization of state workers to be illegal. There is no reason for government employees to unionize.”

Send Hal money!

Do you not think that when they used the term "dangerous", they were just saying that he was one to look out for? That they were scared that he might actually win? From the quotes I've read, I really don't take this to mean that Hal is dangerous, as in "I'm going to blow you up." I take it to mean, "Hal is going to win."

The only thing I see dangerous about Hal Kimball is that he has a good chance to beat them. Keep after them. Benoit can't just make blanket ambiguous statements like that and expect to get away with it.

I’ve always found Hal to be energetic, a good listener, and caring. And patient (thank you, Hal).

I believe Hal will work hard, be responsible, and make things better.

SO THERE, Republicans, and news entities, that don’t understand what it takes to lead and think of more than just yourself.
