Normy can beat him easily but then Norm NEEDS a push over opponent to win. IMO he's running a STUPID campaign. He comes to Duluth yesterday. A city that the EPA is about ready to shut down unless we spend another $billion on our sewer system (we’ve already spent $hundreds of million on it). A city that just laid off 50 employees because of a $6 million budget deficit. A city that sends every dime it collects in real estate taxes to its retirees (we live of fees and whatever the state sends us). And what is Normy’s big federal bribe for votes? A new federal program for “affordable housing”. We are drowning in affordable housing and the people who need it. We need to burn half our affordable housing down and buy the occupants bus tickets back to Indiana. His visit was a total waste of time and will gain him NOT ONE vote.
