Growing up on the iron range in the 60’s and 70’s I remember how good the education system was. I moved to Texas 15 years ago and use to brag about Minnesota and how much better and more progressive it use to be. I can’t do that anymore. It is such a different State than the one I left. It saddens me when I go home for a visit

Don’t forget…for the first time in 31 years, MN has beat the national unemployment rate. C’mon, bidness! We’re waitin’ fer ya..here in good ole Timmy’s tax-free zone.

I’m glad he’s hitched his wagon train to McCain…couldn’t have done a dumber thing.

Ironranger@28…I saw Timmy’s picture up at the Montana Cafe in Cook (taken a couple of years ago when he went to Vermilion for the opener)…yikes…those old “IronRidgers” weren’t too happy to have their pics taken with him. We talked to the waitress there…she was none too pleased about Timmy coming into their place. I’ve got a place on Vermilion…taxes are kinda high for Timmy. I don’t think he’d like paying them. Maybe you could find a nice hunting shack near a swamp for him.

The DFL (Minnesotan for Democratic Party) didn’t “take back” the State Senate in 2006; rather, we increased the majority we already had. The state house was taken back in 2006, after gains in 2004 that came close.

NE Minnesota & the Iron Range has been represented by mostly Democrats for a long time. We have some real fighters up here but Pawlenty has done his best to cut funds for our area. Ironically, he loves our local beautiful Lake Vermilion & has looked for property on the lake. Interesting that he would want to live, even if part time, in an area with a popluation he doesn’t think deserves any support or improvements.

Yup, that sounds like Our Tim.

Exactly on time, except you left out the part about the North American Corporate Union, that will replace the outdated piece of paper, the Constitution.

When I lived in Sacramento, I voted against Prop 13. I’d do the same today.
