Minnesota Republican Party finances were in ‘precarious’ shape

ST. PAUL, Minn. The financial state of the Minnesota Republican Party has been so “precarious” this year that it went a couple months without paying rent on its St. Paul headquarters. Continue Reading
Seems like there’s a little bit of understatement in the article as far as the MNGOP’s debts.

Nope, last time I looked, it was a bit over twice that amount.
Of course, that was numbers submitted by the TPGOP last summer, during the shutdown. Was handy for them, then, to post those kind of numbers, ya know?

Your right BAC which is why you follow Republican politics and look for the deed there is always a motive, and it seldom benefits the 99%!

The 99%, what a joke. These people out there posting are .000001% at best and claim to speak for everyone else. Ain’t happening, people look at them and see the drug dealers, rapists, murders and thieves. Why do they have so much time on their hands? Receiving our tax dollars to sit around and do nothing.
I can understand why the left supports them – when they look in the mirror the protesters are what they see…

Bob, seriously, it’s one thing to have debt, it’s a whole different story when you can’t pay something as simple as rent! Admit that your party is run by financial scoundrels, all while they preach to the public about “fiscal responsibility”!!

MN GOP Treasurer quote = “… we continue to be in a precarious working capital position. Consequently, please note that we are not paying our office lease rent payment currently (but have been in discussions with our landlord) and have not yet negotiated long-term payment schedules and/or negotiated settlements relating to most of the vendors on the accounts payable aging.”
Wow. Just wow!

Bob, why would the MN GOP sign this lease when they can’t pay for it? How does that represent fiscal responsibility? You need to go down there and help them find their bootstraps, because they clearly can’t find them!

Gee Whiz, Randy, don’t get your undies in a bunch. I just asked if the two people had an opinion or comments on their parties debt. As usual, all I heard was the chirp, chirp.

bac, I do believe you had better check your own back yard. The Federal Senate has not passed a budget in three years and they have gotten us into a $15 trillion debt morass even our great grand children will have a hard time getting paid off.

Three posts on the same topic within 5 minutes, isn’t that some kind of record?
Thank God no one really cares what the liberal boys on this site think, what matters is the country wants Obama out of office. Republican finances have nothing to with that objective…
Why are you opposed to balancing the federal budget bac? Democrats can’t evern PRODUCE a budget let alone create a balanced budget. Good ol’Harry is spending to much time in the house he was raised in…

You mean like all those folks in the Obama administration who “forgot” to pay all their taxes Randy? Or congressmen using rent controlled apartments for campaign offices? Or using campaign contributions for covering up an affair during a presidential campaign?
I could go on and on but everyone gets the picture Randy…

I think that Randy means the MN GOP.
You know, the branch that has the worst financial problems in the entire country?
Looks like no matter how much the supporters donate, the GOP in this state just can’t get it’s financial house in order.
Could it be because the backers in MN are just too darn cheap to back up their words with dollars? And is that because they don’t trust the GOP here?

You do understand there 49 more states, MN is not the only one you know. Remember there are only 50 states, not 57 like our super intellegent President proclaimed.
So make up your mind, “entire country” or MN. And please hurry as I am growing tired of your wandering and inaccurate comments.

So, where’s your donations going to elton? Better still, since you’re an organizer and former GOP treasurer, why isn’t the money there to pay off the MNGOP’s debt? Hmm? Tied in too closely with the GSA?

Donations? Mitt Romney. I never give to the party, I help finance the individuals that I feel would best represent the area and my interests.
As far as the GSA you should just give Obama a call and see whats up, can you do that now?

So, why did Mitt have to file for a tax extension?
The Prez and Vice Prez both got their taxes done on time, why does Romney need more? Because we won’t be seeing his tax returns for six more months? How utterly convenient!
