SAINT PAUL -- Alliance for a Better Minnesota is hosting a media call tomorrow, August 20th, with Paul Begala, former Clinton advisor and national pundit, to talk about Minnesota's unique role in the health insurance reform debate.

In Minnesota, and nationwide, radical right-wing rage is occupying the front pages, websites and nightly broadcast of media outlets nationwide.  Begala will discuss the problems with this right-wing strategy, his experience, and the next chapter in the move to health insurance reform with a Minnesota perspective.

The call is open to Minnesota-based media and bloggers.

For dial-in information, contact Denise Cardinal, ABM Executive Director at denise@allianceminnesota.org. (TV stations wanting an on-camera interview can contact Denise).
