Shouldn’t the subject line instead ask “Who are we?”

Hawks_videoPaula Hawks is out hawking for cash this weekend, claiming that she has a powerful grassroots movement. She does? Where are they?  (I’m not sure where that boast is coming from.)

Someone at the campaign might be having a movement, but I’m not going to venture into further speculation. Otherwise, there are few signs of life from one of the worst campaigns in recent state history:

Progressive voters in South Dakota have united behind Democrat Paula Hawks for Congress. As a State Legislator for the 9th district, Paula has proven her commitment to bottom-up solutions to our most pressing problems, like our state’s massive teacher shortage. Now she’s ready to advocate for us in Washington.

Across South Dakota, working families, teachers and parents of public school students, and concerned citizens know that the culture of dysfunction and gridlock in Washington must end.

We’ve formed a powerful grassroots movement, and our numbers are swelling by the day. But we’re working against a Republican establishment in South Dakota funded by big money outsiders who don’t know the first thing about our state.

We need Paula to go to Congress to fight for us and our progressive ideals.
