After record losses, Paula Hawks wants to drain the swamp at SDDP HQ

Pat Powers

It sounds like at least one of the Democrat’s statewide candidates who lost dismally wants to drain the swamp at SDDP HQ, and is demanding a shake up in party leadership:

After an unsuccessful run for South Dakota’s lone U.S. House seat, Democrat Paula Hawks said she hopes her party will shake up its leadership.

The former state legislator and teacher from Hartford said the South Dakota Democratic Party needs to reorganize at the top if it wants to win campaigns moving forward.

“I think that what we’ve seen in the last year is that what we’re doing isn’t working,” she said Tuesday. “We do need a shake-up.”

and…

Hawks said she was committed to working with the party to rebuild and didn’t feel that current party leadership gave her the support she needed in running her campaign against Rep. Kristi Noem.

and..

Tornberg said the party helped Hawks as much as it could and thought the Democrat put up a strong fight against the Republican incumbent.

“I believe that the state party did everything we could to support her, but obviously it wasn’t enough,” Tornberg said.

Well, duh.

  1. The problem is not the party leadership or lack thereof. It is the present policies of the Democrat party, top down to the paid protestors in the street. In case they hadn’t noticed, the socialist/progressive or whatever policies of this present day party do not fit well with the philosophy that this nation was founded on and that have made it great, and especially do not fit with the people of SD. A shakeup that would work is getting back to the philosophy of the Democrat party I grew up with, but I don’t hold out much hope that the Dems will do this.

    1. I agree; if you have a Victoria’s Secret model trying to shill a crap sandwich, you still aren’t going to have may takers except for those who like crap!

      Try distancing yourselves from the New Yawk and California wings of the Democrat party and actually say that the Constitution maybe isn’t so bad, maybe freedom isn’t so bad, maybe expecting people to work isn’t so bad, trying to not spend so much taxpayer money isn’t so bad. . . I could go on, but I doubt if Hawks would listen anyway.

  3. Tornberg has ruined the party,

    She kept all the money for her own race.

    And she’s paying herself. She like Wasserman-Schultz.
