Topic: Rick Kahn


  
  Rick Kahn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rick Kahn was the volunteer campaign treasurer and close friend of the late senator Paul Wellstone (D-MN).
As eulogist at the liberal politician's televised memorial service on October 29, 2002, Kahn delivered an impassioned tribute to Wellstone that became not only a call for Democrats to win the election, but an attack on Republicans, causing a firestorm of controversy.
Kahn has since avoided public attention as a reaction to the negative fall-out from Democrats who blamed him for costing them the election; however, he still remains somewhat active in Democratic politics, particularly in the Twin Cities metro area.
