Lee Bohlsen embarrasses herself "royally" in 10-8-08 debate

MN mom of 5- what is "refreshing" about being illiterate? I'm glad Bohlsen was defeated. Minnesotans are beyond the hateful divisions and ridiculous distractions of the republican party.

Being able to communicate and studying issues are essential to service in the legislature. Topics were provided to ALL the candidates AHEAD of the forum. Participants were allowed to bring notes. Bohlsen needed to study the issues and "stop and think" BEFORE this debate! Experience, qualifications, and knowledge are critical. Bohlsen has none of the above. Shes behind the learning curve her words. I dont want my tax dollars to be wasted on her remedial education!

Funny that we are criticizing her on not being able to "bs"(as you put it). It is refreshing to hear a political candidate stop and think about something and not just spout off an answer or make up something as they go along. Lee is the REAL deal - she is passionate about representing her district and she would do an awesome job. She WILL study out the issues, talk to her constituents, and KEEP HER WORD on not raising taxes,whether or not she can "bs" her way through a debate like the others.

Hahaha. Same answers as most Republicans; she's just worse at the bs. Let's go Swails!

Just watching this train wreck made me grind my teeth.

This woman cannot form a coherent thought, its what happens when all you have are talking points without any understanding of the issue. I take that back, she couldn't even bs her way through the answers.

She sounds like Kif Kroker of Futurama.
