Up next: John Marty

John Marty, the DFL state senator from Roseville, and two-time gubernatorial candidate, has paper out already.

The release focuses on the General Assistance Medical Care cuts, decrying their effect on the newly unemployed.

"The governor's action is in line with his recent veto of the anti-bullying bill. Tim Pawlenty has become the schoolyard bully; he is picking on the sickest, most vulnerable people in our state."

(We'll try to keep up with reaction from the gubernatorial candidates and legislative leaders, but we aren't making any promises.)
