Interesting that the reasons Kelly has given for his craven endorsement of Bush have nothing to do with the administration's treatment of cities. One would have thought that the Mayor would have given some consideration to factors related to his position as a city leader in making a decision like this.
As the Star Tribune points out, "The Republican administration and Congress have been brutal on cities." http://www.startribune.com/stories/561/4907654.html Of course, there is no reason at all to think that the reasons Kelly stated are the real ones. Still, you'd think he could have come up with something better to say than that he'd read a rude bumper sticker. This has Carl Rove written all over it. Pawlenty is under great pressure to deliver Minnesota for Bush. What has the Governor done or promised Kelly in return I wonder.
