Kenny GallagherHostMichelle Tafoya is starting to get some ads out which are catching a lot of people with common sense.
For example, one of the ads I've seen from her online recently says, Peggy Flanagan let fraudsters steal hundreds of millions from you.
You know what? That makes absolute sense, doesn't it? I mean, if you listen to Flanagan, she will dance around the head of a needle.
In fact, she even has gone to the extent of saying numerous times that he even takes credit for it.
Well, you know what? Critics allege that the two-term lieutenant governor, like other walls administrators, failed to take proper action when she was first made aware of the widespread billing schemes that were draining Minnesota taxpayers-funded public assistance programs out of millions of dollars.
And remember the most truthful saying of the whole work about this waste, fraud, and abuse.
The people that were stealing the money were taking money out of the hands of those that really needed it.
Flanagan, now the Democratic nominee for the state open Senate seat, stresses that she was not in charge.
I was not in charge of the state agencies responsible for administrating those fraud services, nor was she the administrator point person directing the state's fraud response.
The governor was the one who took the lead in fraud, she told the Minnesota Star Tribune.
Although she agrees that more should have been done sooner, Flanagan, unless she can't bear the blame for the state's fraud scandal and has repeatedly deflected responsibility and citing her limited authority as lieutenant governor.
Well, but she has made her time in office serving as Wall's second-in-command the cornerstone of why she should be voted for for Senate, telling voters that her nearly eight-year tenure of being the highest-ranking official state governor behind walls requires her to have the experience needed to do the job.
If she wasn't doing the job, and now she claims I can't be held responsible for it, well, her value proportions itself elect me because I'm experienced in government and on the pulse of current issues, yet I was just parked in an office for eight years and didn't do anything.
That's what Bill Kalan is saying from the policy fellows at the Center for the American Experiment.
That's what she's basically saying is, look, vote for me because I was second in command.
I had a lot of experience, but don't tie me into the waste, fraud and abuse because I didn't have anything to do with it.
