KARE-TV in Minneapolis, St. Paul [1] is reporting:
“St. Paul Mayor Randy Kelly broke Democratic Party ranks on Sunday to announce his support for President Bush’s re-election.
‘George Bush and I do not agree on a lot of issues,’ Kelly said in a statement. ‘But in turbulent times, what the American people need more than anything is continuity of government, even with some imperfect policies.’
Kelly, who said he’s remaining a Democrat, said the economy is going in the right direction. ‘There’s no reason to believe a change of course will produce better or quicker results,’ he said.
And the mayor said the United States will bring the troops home from Iraq a lot sooner if ‘we don’t try to bring in a whole new leadership team to run the show. We must stay the course.’ ”
My compliments to the Mayor.
He’s done both his city, and the country a service.
