As been reported over and Over and OVER, Republican Candidate for Governor Tom Emmer - and his team - has had legal problems related to alcohol. Emmer himself has had 2 DWI arrests; former campaign manager David Fitzsimmons got a DWI while on Team Emmer as did his replacement, State Rep. Mark Buesgens (Buesgens got an Open Bottle to boot); campaign staffer, and son, Tripp Emmer has alcohol and other issues (his infamous Facebook picture and the Strip Club Incident).
Anybody else see a pattern, here?
So, when I read this...
ST. PAUL, MN -- The Minnesota Licensed Beverage Association has created a new political organization, SMART PAC. The acronym stands for Supporting Minnesota's Alcohol Retailing Tradition.
"We were going to call it 6 PAC; or 12 PAC," says Frank Ball, the MLBA's executive director. "But my board said stop being so cute." (Politics In Minnesota)
...I have to wonder: how soon until SMART PAC endorses GOPer Tom Emmer?
