“A Real Thrill”
Posted in Blog on June 10th, 2008State Sen. Kevin Dahle introduced Al at the DFL State Convention on Saturday, and in a post on his campaign blog he said that it “was a real thrill, believe me.”
An excerpt from his speech:
Al Franken worked my campaign. He made phone calls for me and on a night hovering around zero degrees we door knocked together. If you ever get a chance to door knock with Al Franken, I highly recommend it.
On the eve of the election, he stumped for me at student rallies on the campuses of St. Olaf and Carleton College. Al Franken helped energize my campaign and the very supporters who endorse him now.
But Al will be the first to tell you this election is not about him. It’s about us.
It’s about those who work for a living and it’s about those who can’t.
It’s about fighting for what’s right and correcting what’s wrong.
…
I’m ready to stand up and help Al Franken fight for this Senate seat the way Al Franken helped me fight for mine!
My fellow DFLers, as a freshman Senator, I am proud to introduce the next freshman Senator from the great state of Minnesota, AL FRANKEN!!!!!
A big thank you from TeamFranken to Senator Dahle for his wonderful introduction!
