A candidate that finally gets to the root of the problem! We need more people with this view in political office!!!! Then we can start to change things and bring this country back into true posperity for all, not an artifical prosperity created by manipulation of the economy.

Norm Coleman said, "You have to ask of each candidate, what have we done in our lives to merit serving you in the U.S. Senate?" Well, Norm, apparently the answer is selling us down the river for the sake of Big Corporate Profits. Remember when you said you cared about hard-working Minnesotans back in '02, then voted with Bush/Cheney almost 90% of the time and gave no oversight over the Bush/Cheney no-bid contract fiascos, even when it was your job in the Senate as the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Investigations? Shame on you, Norm. Shame on you.

No Al, outside of rail for freight, you are simply talking about more expensive, less efficient forms of energy that will only end up costing the taxpayer more.

What was the approval rating of Congress? Less than 20%? Hope everybody votes for either a Democrat or Republican so we can have more of the same. After all they are looking out for the best interests of the people.

I agree with Barkley and Williams. Until we get the voters off their butts and vote in some independents to shake things up, nothing will change. It's getting old. Greg from Chaska
