Even though my views are often different than the Mayor's, I have a lot of respect for his vision of a more fiscally responsible and vibrant Minneapolis. I also admire his willingness to diverge from DFL conformity when he feels it is more progressive. I also believe that he is endorsing the best candidate. However, I would hope that voters research the candidates' positions and make their decisions based on issues and not on the endorsements of other people.
