This ad is running in the Watertown area for the Dennis Arnold race against Nancy Turbak. A pretty nice ad featuring Dennis with John Thune and Mike Rounds.

Watertown Public Opinion Straw Ballot had Nancy Turbak at 67% to Dennis Arnold 37%, is saying the district 5 voters like Turbak.

It's nice to see that this candidate for Dist 5 Senate has been faithfully married to the same person, and has been a good role model to the young people of Watertown.

So, 104% of the voters in Watertown are voting?? Is that on the Reservation, or what?? Actually,more Dems typically respond to those polls, the Repubs are busy working or raising their children.

The same straw ballot has Billion Winning too. In fact just about every Democrat wins in the poll - Not in the real world.
The straw poll is garbage.
A monkey would pick more winners.
They call the Public Opinion and newspaper?

what kind of "role model" has Turbo-liberal been?

Nancy Turbak is a smart, successful woman. That really threatens a lot of you GOP men, doesn't it?
She's a lot better role model than the GOP is putting out these days (Foley, Delay, Ney, Cunningham).

That straw ballot is trash, all right. The Diedrich Peterson Senate race promises to be close in District 4. Their ballot came out with 82% Peterson and 18% Diedrich. There's no way that's going to even be in the ballpark on the numbers! They are both strong candidates. I hear people saying they are having a hard time deciding who to choose between the two.
Regarding Turbak and Arnold. Turbak is successful and well known, and a strong candidate. Too bad I don't approve of her agenda.
Arnold is a good man, but I don't believe he has much charisma... which wins people over. However, if people vote their morals and conscience, Arnold is the man.

I am very conservative, but having dealt with Dennis Arnold, I would NEVER vote for him. Republicans need to get a candidate with integrity!
As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on...
On the eve of her wedding, State Senator Orv Smidt writes to the Argus Leader condemning Congresswoman Herseth for her actions on the Iraq funding bill - calling them "emboldening to the enemy:" I ask you to consider how Herseth has gotten to be such an expert that she can deny the commander-in-chief, the Defense Department, the Secretary of State and our brave soldiers the resources they need to fight and win in Iraq? Why it is OK to embolden our enemy by publishing a timetable for withdrawal? I was once a soldier in Vietnam. The actions by our political leaders of the time told me that my service to our country was not appreciated. and... Our brave soldiers in Iraq don't want to hear that either. Go read it all here . Considering (as a Brookings residnt) he's her State Senator in Pierre, this is particularly stinging.
Dave Kranz got a bit of a scoop on everyone with his column in the Argus Leader today noting that Dusty Johnson is at a point where he's considering the US House Race: "It is something I am considering. Any time you have a realistic opportunity to make South Dakota better, you have to take a look," Dusty Johnson says. "The thing for me: Can you be a good congressman and a good father?" and... "I have tremendous respect for Rep. Herseth Sandlin, but this is not about her. It is tough to sit on the sidelines as we deal with security and economic issues. It would be an opportunity for me to make a difference," Johnson said. Rep. Joel Dykstra is opening the door to a possible U.S. Senate campaign regardless of what Johnson decides to do. Read it all here . Actually, I'm intrigued by this lineup. It might mean Republicans have a solid congressional field to go into the election season with. When faced with a choice of this nature, it means that the Con...
