2. Paulsen is no Ramstad, that's for sure.

Bonoff has been attempting to run for higher office for a while now. I thought I had read something about her looking to move to the 8th district after Oberstar lost and retired. Overall she has a pretty good voting record but does tend to lean conservative on some issues. Which, granted, is what it's going to take for a Democrat to win in the 3rd. I like the linking of Paulsen to Drumpf but yes, she does need to also promote herself. Hopefully the DCCC has some more money for her - given Drumpf's unpopularity in the state, the DFL might have its best shot at this seat in a long time.
