Thank you Mayor Kelly! You have shown true leadership lately. I know many say that you are not leading, but I disagree. I think that having convictions and making decisions are quality leadership pedigree essentials. Just making decisions or simply following a party line is not leadership. I would rather vote for someone who has convictions and believes in them, not putting a finger up to the proverbial political wind or a poll watching politician.
Thank you for stopping the smoking bill so far. Hopefully that can be resolved by some form of compromise where bars are excluded. Thank you for thinking of St Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota and the United States before local DFL politics. Going against the party grain is hard for any politician. It's unfortunate that you are blasted here for not following the party line. I ask that you continue to lead by your principles and convictions. I may not always agree, but respect you more each time you show that you have them. Thank you again for your service to St Paul and Minnesota.
