DFL Attack on Missed Votes Backfires

Since Endorsement, Kelliher Has Missed 51 Votes; Obama Missed 300 Votes During Pres. Campaign

Today Minnesota Democrats launched their most hypocritical partisan attack yet of 2010. The DFL Party, Rep. Tony Sertich, and Rep. Ryan Winkler launched a coordinated attack against Rep. Tom Emmer over missed votes.

But a quick review of Margaret Anderson Kelliher and Barack Obama’s missed votes reveals the hypocritical nature of the attack. Given that Speaker Margaret Anderson Kelliher sets the House schedule, you would think she wouldn’t miss any votes.

Where’s The DFL Outrage?
