A student editorial in the school paper discusses watching the Bachmann-Wetterling results:

When the news was announced that Wetterling had lost, I gazed at the crowd for their reactions. Tears came instantly. And why shouldn't they have? The right person for the job lost, and a woman, who is confused with politics and religion, won.

People should be concerned about the results. Bachmann who refers to herself being told to run by God, and her husband, now represents us.

I know I slept uneasy last night knowing she won. I left the gathering knowing that Minnesota is in trouble.

So, my friends, be afraid, be very afraid. My fellow DFL-ers, at least we have control of the House. So, Bachmann your views will hopefully be lost in a crowd of real leaders.
