Let's talk about the origins of the "new" DFL. When Sharon won the
endorsement over Rip Rapson, it was hard fought.
Sharon did NOT win the endorsement; that Convention adjourned
without endorsing a mayoral candidate. (In fact, Sharon never won an
endorsement battle all through her career. She was only endorsed when she
ran without opposition.)
It was also instructive to note who was not there. Neva Walker stayed
away, as did Ms. Clarissa Walker. That's telling. Some of the old heads
were not there. I missed them.
I understand they were both out of town for a family event. Which
seems like a more important event to go to, frankly.
