Keillor wrote that Lake Wobegon was “smack in the middle of Minnesota — in Minnesota's sixth congressional district,” and said it was “embarrassing to me and a great many Minnesotans” that Rep. Michele Bachmann represented the district.
In the e-mail to Clark's supporters titled, "Defending Lake Wobegon," the humorist accused Bachmann of “grandstanding and giving interviews to Fox News” instead of working for the district, echoing an attack line the Clark campaign has used.
Bachmann campaign spokesman Sergio Gor responded that Keillor's pitch "is yet another sign of a desperate campaign."
"The quota on comedy in Minnesota has been reached with the election of Al Franken," Gor said. "Garrison Keillor should stick to what he knows best, which is fabricating make believe stories."

Question for Bachmann supporters?
If you live in the 6th and vote for this woman, why? I would like someone to give five good intelligent examples/ bills passed that has helped your district during her term. I'm seriously interested in your response, and birther, taking the country back, fake socialism non sense doesn't qualify as real answers. Because that talk doesn't help people of the 6th get jobs, find education and help our quality of life. What were some REAL solutions she has solved during her first term?
