5. She is not running for office

Her ReTHUG colleagues allowed her to remain in office despite ethics violations on the condition that she does not run for office again.

Why she is given so much air time given her campaign finance fraud issues is anyone's guess.
She should really be in prison.


Looks like her supposed replacement has some issues of his own

Congressional candidate Tom Emmer's campaign has amended its federal campaign-finance filings after initially reporting it paid a salary and consulting fees to a state lawmaker.

The Emmer campaign reported to the Federal Election Commission in January that it made the payments to state Rep. David FitzSimmons, R-Albertville.

The campaign amended that report last month after the Times inquired about the payments. The amended report says those funds went to reimburse FitzSimmons for travel, lodging and sign purchases.

FitzSimmons is a first-term GOP legislator who isn't running for re-election. He has longstanding ties to Emmer, having managed Emmer's campaign for governor for part of the 2010 cycle.

Emmer, R-Delano, is the frontrunner for the GOP nomination to succeed U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann in Minnesota's 6th Congressional District. He faces Anoka County Board chair Rhonda Sivarajah in an Aug. 12 primary to decide the Republican nominee.
