In my mind, Peter McLaughlin is part of that old DFL hackdom that was swept away 3years ago.By all means, let's be sure to judge the man, even before he announces (the Strib, of course, never having been wrong in the past). Let's not look to what he has or has not done for us as a county commissioner, but at the fact that he is part of the DFL (and from the posts it was a different DFL than that to which RT Rybak belongs). Ignore that in order to do things, he may have had to have cooperation from SSB, DFL legislators, et.al. Maybe if we check far enough back, we'll discover that he's Scots and his ancestors supported Mary Stewart rather than Elizabeth I.
He's now spent three years without SSB, maybe someone could check his record and see how well he's done.
Since the work of the county is different from the work of the city, I'd like us to let him run on his own record, rather than anyone else's.
