Let us not rush to judgement without deeper thinking. The benefits
(dollars) to flow from Washington to Minneapolis will be decidely
different under Gore as opposed to Bush. Therefore, the outcome in
Florida, while superficially non-Minneapolis is nevertheless a
Minneapolis concern in very practical terms. Were the Florida issue
about it's governor, then the debacle there could not be construed as a
Minneapolis issue. That being said some posts have indeed waltzed unto
rather thin ice, losing pertinence as a result. It is a very tough call
to say when something might or might not have practical impact on
Minneapolis; but it is not a tough call to send the issue over unto
MN-Politics-Discuss.
