Jeff at Bachmann vs. Wetterling asks if I had a copy of Patty Wetterling's speech at the DFL state convention. I dug around a bit and with Midday's help, found a raw feed on DAT, and encoded it. Here it is. Also added it to her page on Campaign 2006.
Speaking of Bachmann, VP Dick Cheney is coming to town to raise some cash for her according to the Associated Press.
Vice President Dick Cheney is scheduled to appear at a
fundraiser on Bachmann's behalf on June 26 in Excelsior, according
to an invitation to the event obtained by The Associated Press.

Excelsior? That's in the 3rd District.
I also stumbled across a speech given Saturday at the convention by Tim Walz, who's running against Gil Gutknecht. And I encoded that also. Here.
And I also found Keith Ellison's speech and that's here. Interesting note: in introducing Ellison and announcing how Ellison has unified the party, DFL party boss Brian Melendez said "there are a few exceptions, but we'll take care of them."
By the way, I didn't hear any reference to Collin Peterson while I was monitoring things. Maybe some of you reading this were there. Are they still treating him like poison?
