What is the opinion of the List regarding the Mayors endorsement of a
City Council candidate?  Rather, what is the impact of this mayor's very public selection process.

WM: From one angle, it's the "young turks" (I've never been sure whether this term refers back to people from Turkey or turkeys of the Xmas dinner type). This is one possible next generation of Democrats. Look to those who put Rybak in office, not the voters, but who were the campaign.
From another angle, it's Rybak vs. Sabo for big guys lending endorsement to the candidate. 'I'll see your congressman and raise you one mayor.' Damon Runyan could have a field day with it.
It also points out some of the schisms in the DFL.
