Fringe Festival Comes to Ridgedale

We Must Treat Our Vets Right

This evening the CD3 Endorsements Committee met at Ridgedale Library in Minnetonka.

Someone moved that the blogger be asked to leave; this was briefly discussed and voted [unanimously] upon. I could stay. Cool.

Unfortunately, Terri Bonoff and Ashwin Madia screened yesterday evening; this evening the committee screened Scott Greiman, who I profiled previously, here. Greiman has zero chance of getting the endorsement; he has no visible supporters or charisma. Greiman was allowed to address the committee and then each committee member was called upon to ask a question of him. Some present felt varying degrees of resentment toward Greiman's 'phony' candidacy, for whatever reason, many said 'pass' instead of asking him a question. But plenty did put a question to Greiman and he had plenty of time to put forward his case, failing utterly. The result: The CD3 Endorsements Committee will inform the convention that it deems two candidates qualified: Bonoff and Madia.
