Fugitives for Congress!

What's up with Republican candidates for office lately? First, we have far-right lunatic and Maryland resident Alan Keyes running for the Senate in Illinois. Now, we have a fugitive from justice running in the Republican primary for Saint Paul's congressional seat?

Sure, it's hard to find good candidates for races where you will probably lose, and CD-4 is no exception. Whoever gets the Republican nod is going to lose. And Jack Shepard isn't yet the Republican candidate, nor will he be. But this kind of negative publicity can't be helping the party.

You are trying to link the fact that a fugitive who is running for the nomination illustrates the Republican Party is desperate for qualified candidates. Clearly this is a lame attempt to portray that the MNGOP is short on good candidates to represent its values and ideas. The Republican Party has already given their endorsement to an excellent candidate Patrice Bataglia back in May for the Fourth District.
