Eva,
Interesting about that DFL machine comment: I was
at the DFL party at CWA and more than a few people
were pleased that Lilligren came in first. Seems
rather counter productive to be attacking the DFL
when, considering the make-up of the 8th Ward, Robert
may be seeking the votes of more than a few of those
"DFL machine" types you consistently rail against. As
someone who would very much like to see Robert
elected, I would recommend he get a better
spokesperson.
Oh, and Dean Zimmerman came in first by only 111 votes
over Dean Kallenbach. Seems to me that someone with
eight years of elected office experience should do
better than that. Before the Green members of this
list break out the champaigne and fireworks they may
want to ponder that. Perhaps the Green label isn't all
it's cracked up to be? TTFN
