Tom Humphrey:

State Sen. Raymond Finney has reported providing his re-election campaign with a $200,050 loan, pushing the cash-on-hand campaign funds to $272,547 for an upcoming primary clash with state Rep. Doug Overbey.

Overbey, meanwhile, raised $82,318 during the past six months and now has $181,185 cash on hand, according to a campaign finance disclosure filed with the Registry of Election Finance. Overbey has announced that he will challenge Finney in the August Republican primary.

Maybe he realizes that Overbey is just a party pawn. I am impressed with his level of commitment.

Minnesota:

You are impressed with whose level of commitment? I'm at a loss for someone to explain why Doug Overbey is a "party pawn." Yes, he is GOP, but is that distinction in and of itself a badge of dishonor?*

* Disclaimer: Doug Overbey is my friend of many years and in my view a very decent man.
