Thissen’s viral video attempt

Paul Thissen is hoping that a new campaign tool will help get his name and message out to DFL delegates.

Thissen, a DFL candidate for governor, has scheduled a live video chat for noon Wednesday and will field questions from twitter, Facebook and online. The key question is whether the video will gauge interest especially since the first chat will be the day before Thanksgiving.

You can find the details and submit questions here.

On the GOP side, Republican Marty Seifert has a weekly online chat to discuss the issues and the campaign.
