Memory Lane: When Sletten Sought DFL Endorsement
But I was a little surprised to hear that Elizabeth Sletten received GOP endorsement, given her history of seeking of support from the DFL. As a city council candidate in 2009, she asked for a DFL resolution of support; and in last year's special election she sought Democratic endorsement. When the candidates were asked about their past support of DFL candidates and the party, Ms. Sletten described her pride in voting for President Obama. In her own words recorded June 15, 2010:
Perhaps she had a major change of political heart over the past year. But a person has to wonder if she was just saying what she thought the audience wanted to hear when she was asking for their votes -- either then or now.
