NEWS . VOL 24 #1158 . PUBLISHED 2/12/03 State of the City Minneapolis pols draw lines, choose sides
by G.R. Anderson Jr. The news that Don Samuels had been elected last week to fill Joe Biernat's vacated Third Ward seat on the Minneapolis City Council came adorned with the usual post-campaign platitudes: the embarrassing self-reflection from die-hard DFLers lamenting the loss by Olin Moore; Samuels fans naively proclaiming that a new day had come to city hall. Certainly Samuels stands to change the complexion of the council ever so slightly when he's sworn in on February 14. But how much impact will he really have? http://www.citypages.com/databank/24/1158/article11051.asp Shawn Lewis, Field Neighborhood -- _______________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup Meet Singles http://corp.mail.com/lavalife TEMPORARY REMINDER: 1.
