St. Paul's ABC affiliate, KSTP, has just reported that El Tinklenberg, the new Red-to-Blue candidate in MN-06, has raised over $640,000 in the 48 hours since his opponent, uber-wingnut Michele Bachmann, said that Barack Obama is anti-American.
Let's keep it going! Contribute here!
Tinklenberg's campaign said those donations have come from nearly 13,000 different people across the country.
"We've gotten a lot of people who said, I voted Republican all of my life. I can't stand this, here's my donation make sure you beat her," said Tinklenberg.
That's an average donation of less than $50, so typical of the grassroots campaigning we've seen this year up and down the ticket.
