As far as David's comment on warnings "Right Steve?". Please keep an even hand at the tiller for warnings. I got a bit tried of mis-informed people getting their non-germane posts through continuously. It seems to me that some people feel that they can post something that violates the policies, and continue to do it. There needs to be a heavy hand on those people, or just open the door and allow everyone to do this. Regarding the SD59 races..... Evan, I'm glad to see that you're involved, but I'd suggest that you re-look at the SD59 races. There are some very good and interesting contests here. Bowman vs. Khan & Meyer vs. Pogemiller. The battles over education, and solid sane representation are great causes to take up. Everyone agrees that we are far too over taxed. Even some of the democrats over here are running on this subject (talk about a Gore-ish flip-flop). Regarding Linda's race..... I've have found her to be a very dedicated person to representing the interests of the people in her district. She has a common sense approach to government that appears to be in lock step with her district. So, leave it to the people of her district. About Ron E. running for mayor..... Has anyone heard anything from him about his vision for the city of Minneapolis? Don't think so. Let us wait until he has a chance to talk on his own behalf! I really can't wait to hear from him on what he'd like to do as Mayor. It'll be a refreshing change to hear some vision for all of the people of Minneapolis, instead of how the city council and mayor can run the taxpayer base out of the city. A great change of pace.
