Ms Olson of the Star Tribune should thank me and the Mpls list creators for giving her a story. I think that RT and SSB spent around 250K on their respective campaigns in 2001. A $42K mailing paid for by tax payer dollars is a great way to raise almost 20% of your previous campaign budget. I don't think that RT broke the law I just believe that he used poor timing in mailing this piece. I would like to use the city's printer the next time I run for office at 24 cents a copy to mail out. You can't beat that price maybe that's why the city's communications department wants to take over MTN? So they can get money to mail out news letters for our elected officials during election years. Election 2005 is getting off to a great start I may be joining the party.
