Oxbow6 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Politico: Conrad won't run If true, I'd put my money on Drew Wrigley filling his vacancy. 1
The Sicatoka Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Would former ND Gov. and US Ag Sec. Ed Schafer consider a run? Conrad and Dan Hammer both in a day ...
LB#11 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 If true, I'd put my money on Drew Wrigley filling his vacancy. I think Drew Wrigley will be our Governor in 2012.
Oxbow6 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I think Drew Wrigley will be our Governor in 2012. I believe the potential title of Senator will trump potential title of Governor. He, IMO, would win either race...a senate seat will be too tough to pass up.
Goon Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I believe the potential title of Senator will trump potential title of Governor. He, IMO, would win either race...a senate seat will be too tough to pass up. I was thinking Ed Schaffer? That's who I would love to see...
LB#11 Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I believe the potential title of Senator will trump potential title of Governor. He, IMO, would win either race...a senate seat will be too tough to pass up. You may be right...Politics(Senate & House) in North Dakota has changed dramatically the past few months.
coach daddy Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I believe the potential title of Senator will trump potential title of Governor. He, IMO, would win either race...a senate seat will be too tough to pass up. I too believe he'll run for Gov. Mr. Wrigley has no political experience to speak of so U.S. Senate would be a reach. How about Wayne Stenehjem?
Bison Dan Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 You can bet one of the Heitkamp's will run.
star2city Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 You can bet one of the Heitkamp's will run. Just very thankful that Bison Dan isn't running. 1
siouxforeverbaby Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 A Heitkamp will run....I wouldn't mind seeing Schafer run. I think Wrigley would run for Gov. before Sen....but he could surprise us all. Stenehjem could run, but I don't see him running. 1
lomackman Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 All I can say is, good luck Fargo getting flood protection money now. 1
WYOBISONMAN Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 How about Damschen running.......then that asshat can try and get prohibition started again......
firewall Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 All I can say is, good luck Fargo getting flood protection money now. Amen to that!
Old Time Hockey Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 All I can say is, good luck Fargo getting flood protection money now. Yep and now that our security blanket of Conrad, Dorgan, and Pomeroy is gone, we will probably lose the Sioux nickname and logo too!
Oxbow6 Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Yep and now that our security blanket of Conrad, Dorgan, and Pomeroy is gone, we will probably lose the Sioux nickname and logo too! The 3 amigos of ND. Pomeroy was defeated for a reason. The other 2 amigos just saw the writting on the wall IMO.
Old Time Hockey Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 The 3 amigos of ND. Pomeroy was defeated for a reason. The other 2 amigos just saw the writting on the wall IMO. Oh....I thought that Dorgan just thought it was time to retire? Wish he would have let the voters retire him like we did to Pomeroy! This notion that only the 3 amigos could get money for a major project like flood protection is old and tired. They were exposed and now they are gone!

This notion that only the 3 amigos could get money for a major project like flood protection is old and tired. They were exposed and now they are gone! Dorgan went out on his own terms, which was smart. With Hoeven in the race, his odds of winning were a coin flip at best. Better to go out as you want rather than the Pomeroy exit! Conrad...he's got 2 more years with our current C & C running the country. He's odds probably wouldn't be any better in two years from now either. Call your own shots and go out on your own terms.
WYOBISONMAN Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 The "Slum Lord" Rick Berg will serve ND well. I have known Rick since undergrad school and the guy is perhaps one of the scummiest opportunists I have ever met. Good luck with that liar as the Congessman.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say there wasn't a Christmas card exchange between the 2 of you this year!
UND92,96 Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 Interesting that former UND football player Mac Schneider is getting some mention as a potential Democratic candidate: http://prairiefire.areavoices.com/2011/01/19/if-conrad-isnt-running-who-will-be-north-dakotas-2012-u-s-senate-candidates/
WYOBISONMAN Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 I'm going to go out on a limb and say there wasn't a Christmas card exchange between the 2 of you this year! LOL......nope....... There are some fine posters on here.......I get a little hot under the collar and you all take it in stride.....cudos....

I have known Rick since undergrad school and the guy is perhaps one of the scummiest opportunists I have ever met. Good luck with that liar as the Congessman. Berg showed his true colors when he couldn't be bothered to attend a single meeting on flood control for Fargo. Flood protection will not get done unless ND pays for it. There will be no federal money for flood protection in a teabagger controlled U.S. House. 2

Like that sleazy scam him, his wife, and his mother-in-law pulled on his wife's step-brother and sisters.

Well people do like to cut their noses off to spite their face.
