Blaine, MN – The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee announced today that El Tinklenberg has been added to their top-tier Red to Blue program as a candidate for change. The announcement follows Tinklenberg’s financial report which shows $469,000 raised in the third quarter and $1,000,065 raised this cycle. Tinklenberg filed with $356,631 cash on hand.

“The candidates for change being named to the DCCC Red to Blue program are running solid campaigns and are committed to making things easier for middle class families in their districts,” said Chris Van Hollen, Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. “El Tinklenberg has worked hard to make his race competitive, and he’s moving into position to win. With a solid campaign organization and strong momentum in the district, El Tinklenberg has proven that he has what it takes to defeat Rep. Michele Bachmann.”

Red to Blue was a proven success in the 2006 cycle. In 2006, the Red to Blue program raised nearly $22.6 million for 56 campaigns averaging $404,000 per campaign. Red to Blue was also responsible for solidifying the structure of dozens of campaigns and making a real difference for Democrats across America.

With three weeks until Election Day, campaign manager Anna Richey said Tinklenberg is gearing up to win. “We’ve been keeping a lot of our work under the radar, but our momentum is quickly becoming evident in the district. And while it’s fun to surprise people, our strength at this point is no accident. People are seeing the results of months of careful planning and execution, and the dedication of a candidate we are all proud to work for.”

Tinklenberg is endorsed by the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party, the Minnesota Independence Party, the Democratic Blue Dog Coalition, and 34 labor groups.

On Tueday, the DCCC injects new money into the campaign, and on Friday Bachman opens her sorry mouth and inadvertently adds well over $100,000 more into it.

1. I wish I owned a television network...

I would have Michelle "McCarthy" Bachman on every hour!

Chris Matthews knew exactly what he was doing, when he allowed Bachman to open her big
fat mouth and spew those outrageous talking points.

Head's up America! Here's what you get with these vicious Republicans--a return to
witch hunts!

Let's hope that Bachman shows up everywhere to unload her radical nonsense!

:rofl:

I knew he was running for Independents. There are 15% of independent voters up for grabs. I'm so happy for him but let's not stop sending out our support. :woohoo: :kick:
