Will Brendan Johnson run for office?

This face is ‘too nice’ to be a politician

As a long time Democrat active in the party told me yesterday, “Highly unlikely.”

Their reasons were straight forward, he will make a lot of cashola with his new job and will probably never look back.

I tend to agree with them that he will probably not run either in 2016. After watching so many Democrats over the past 8 years fall on the sword for the party, I just don’t think Brendan has the stomach to lose against Ironic Johnny or Noemless.

And who would want to be a Democratic governor in a state ran by Republicans?

Also, I don’t think Brendan has the makings of a politician, he’s just too ‘nice’. If we are going to beat the Republicans in 2016 and beyond, we need a real Democratic Ass(hole) to finally expose and tell the truth about how GOP has been damaging our state for years. We need to start punching them in the face and kicking them in the ass.

Got to hand it to Rounds, he doesn’t waste anytime showing his partisanship;

“I have had the opportunity to talk to a number of Democrat Senators who are welcoming the change back to what Leader (Mitch) McConnell is saying will be the new norm, which will be making through a regular order of business where committees actually function once again and are expected to get their work out on a timely basis,” Rounds said.

And when you talked to those senators Marion, did they tell you they prefer the non-Rush Limbaugh title of ‘Democratic’. No surprise coming from our new Repug Senator.

Tornberg & Lowe win Democratic Party chair

l3wis 3Comments

Ann Tornberg will be the next SD Democratic party chair with Joe Lowe acting as vice chair. I think it will be a good East & West team for the party. Joe is a real go getter and is cut out for this kind of work, Ann is too, and very intelligent. She understands the games Republicans play.

I think Jeff Barth would have been a good chair, but I was concerned about the overt partisanship it would have presented with him serving on the County Commission. While I think it is fine to chair your county party or act as a delegate or precinct member in your respective parties as commissioners or city councilors, I think a line needs to be drawn with chairs.

Good Luck Dems, you are gonna need it.
