Somebody sure is pushing Klobuchar

And then there's The Audacity of Minnesota: Senator Amy Klobuchar, four pages of hugs and kisses from Elle magazine, now on newsstands.

"Meet the woman who (thanks to Hillary and Sarah's bushwhacking) many say should be pointing her ambition at the White House," the magazine insists.

:wtf:

1. The people in the GOP who think Pawlenty would make a great president...

...are no different than the people in the DFL who think AKlo is presidential or Supreme Court material. Both are seriously delusional.

2. I'm just wondering who's behind this

Amy isn't that special and yet, in the same week, articles appear suggesting she might become a Supreme Court Justice OR the President!

That can't be any grass roots thing. Someone is pushing her from behind the scenes.

Who is it and what are they up to?

3. Looking for the next puppet? (nt)

4. My guess is the DLC

which is, as dflprincess noted, always on the lookout for puppets.

Let's see who is keynote speaker at the next Democratic convention.

6. I imagine she'll need to take some lessons before that

I've never thought she was much of a speaker.

5. Did I elect a model or a senator

And why is Amy wasting her time posing for fashion magazines when there are still 400,000 w/out health insurance in MN, 240,000 jobsless, thousands hungry, empty foodshelfs, etc.?

If I wanted a model I would have voted for Paris Hilton.
