Coleen Rowley, candidate for Congress in MN-02,
posted to the Huffington Post yesterday about the situation in Iran and what she believes is the best reponse:
Bush's defenders will argue that now is not the time for pointing fingers, and that Democrats should offer solutions instead. Here's my solution: Democratic control of Congress.
Those who cry out I'm exploiting a threat to our nation's security for political gain have it exactly backwards. I'm running for Congress because Republican control of government is a threat to our national security!
I'm one of Coleen's strongest supporters, and I hope the HuffPo piece will cause the netroots to take notice of her. She's exactly the kind of Dem we want in Congress, one who's not afraid to speak truth to power, and take on the Republicans on the issue which conventional wisdom holds up as their strong suit, national security.
