Hello Aron, I have never thought that the Star Tribunes endorsement has that much impact on the average voter. I am fairly certain the Star Tribune did not endorse Paul Wellstone his first election as well as numerous others that ended up winning. Newspapers endorsement are just the reflection of a small group of people that probable impact a very small percentage of voters. Franklin Roosevelt never received a majority of our nations newspapers endorsements yet was reelected to office four times. Ken Bradley

I think that anyone who's actually been following this race knows that it's not the mortal lock that the Strib's endorsements and inattention to the competition make it out to be. I think Tom Taylor would be a great rep., and we need independent voices at the capitol more than ever.
