Poll question: Is Mark Dayton putting himself at risk?

He's closing his office based on information Bill Frist gave him.

As republicons are now turning the other way and making him look like a fool, amongst calling him a coward and other things, do you think the republicons are pulling a stunt he fell for?

2. the real question: Why is Bill Frist scaring Mark Dayton?

And is he trying to scare other Democratic Senators? Is he also trying to scare the republicans? (or is it "nudge, nudge, wink, wink" to them)

3. His office workers aren't really in danger . . .

. . . they're just going home to campaign.

So who gets the last laugh?

5. I seem to remember a certain Bill Frist...

running around like a headless chicken some months ago because he thought the frosting on his donut was anthrax.

6. Did Frist say that

Dayton was any more "at risk" than any other Congressman?

8. Closing his office is a pretty big deal

and Dayton has been coming out swinging on many occasions, Frist might have said something to him, but I would tend to think that there are more serious reasons that he closed his office.

9. I wonder what frist told him?

It was probably a set up to get Dayton to do what he did, but Dayton did the right thing IF he feels threatened. Fuck the repukes. Who was it that flew around in Air Force 1 all friggin' day on 911 because he's such a chickenshit? Oh ya, that would be the leader of the free world...Frist's leader! Fuck what the repukes say. Did they hang around the Senate building during the anthrax scare? Unless EVERY repuke did, they can go fuck themselves. Damn. Have I told you today just how much I HATE these people? I DO! I hate them.
