Not quite. There are aspects of the state party platform
I don't agree with, such as their stand on the domestic partner
issue, and insofar as I agree with the rest of the platform,
it's because I believe the policies of the Republican party
would be better for my neighbors than those of the DFL, which
has been in charge here in Phillips since before I moved here.

Why is this surprising? You were expecting me to have
links to Roger Moe and Ken Pentel, maybe? Bob, I'm a REPUBLICAN.
You should no more expect me to be linking to DFL, Green and IP
websites than you should expect my opponent to be linking to
Republican sites.

If you truly found nothing then either your browser needs adjustment
or you caught us in the first day or so when we were still building
the site and chucking pages at the server. I suspect that it's more
a case of you not finding policies to your liking, which I guess
can't be helped.

Environmental issues take a distinct back seat in this district
to issues of economics, education, and crime, in my opinion. I chose
to use my website space to address the most important issues. Again,
I'm not running to please everyone on the list, just 51% of the folks
who show up at the polls in 61A and mark their ballots for state rep.
