DR
Here are the 2010 Statewide Elections in South Dakota. Everything is set after both parties had their conventions over the weekend. I am predicting a republican sweep of all these races. The US House race and the Secretary of State race will be the toughest. Ben Nesselhuf is a good candidate. Adam, I am curious on your thoughts.

Republican Candidate for Governor Dennis Daugaard has tapped former Rep. Matt Michels, R-Yankton, as his running mate.
At first I wasn’t sure about his selection but after thinking about it I am sure this was a good choice. I thought Chris Nelson would have been a good choice but this guy comes with out baggage. As I learn more about him, I am sure I will come to understand his choice.
Check out what American News Blogger Bob Mercer had to say about the selection

The Ohio version that is…
Apparently this is what happens when you question a congressmen about his voting record.
Was he charged with assault? Probably Not
So Monday night I was sitting at my other job at began to write my endorsement for the US House. As I began to write it I left the part where I would type the name blank until I finished. What I was doing was writing down what I thought would be the best qualities needed to defeat Stephanie Herseth-Sandlin. I typed those qualities that are typical of the GOP as you would expect. There was one problem with the post…I could have put Chris Nelson, Kristi Noem, or Blake Curd. So in couldn’t endorse anyone for House, I just couldn’t. As I walked up to the voting box with ballot in hand I didn’t know who I was going to vote for. After marking Dennis Daugaards name and yes on the opt out, I went back to the House section…I then marked my X next to Kristi Noem. To this day I do believe that I made the right decision.
Kristi will beat Stephanie to send her back to Texas with her husband and out of our lives forever.
The rest of the races, the only thing that shocked me was that Dennis Daugaard received 50% of the vote. I am not surprised that the Brown, Marshall, and Roberts Counties opt outs failed.
Now we move forward to November. Look forward to some good debates between Adam and I.
Hardly Working, Making No Difference
I have posted two new polls on the right on who you would be voting for in November for the house and governor.
Dennis Daugaard is a proven leader, true conservative and can lead South Dakota out of this budget crisis that South Dakota faces. This is why I am endorsing Dennis Daugaard to receive the republican nomination for candidate for governor of South Dakota.
His priorities are job creation and balancing the state budget, all of which he has experience with in his personal life and during his career as executive director of the Childrens Home Society of Sioux Falls. When he took over back in the 90s he had almost no surplus in the budget. When he left last year, there was almost $20 million dollars in the surplus account. He was able to balance the budget, cut un-needed spending and get CHS back on track. All of these experiences can benefit South Dakotans in Pierre.
There are several good candidates in the race for governor…but Dennis is the most electable candidate on the ballot with the most experience.
Most importantly, Daugaard is the best candidtate to beat Heidepriem in November.
