Tim Walz was unable to cajole, emotionally manipulate or bully the MNGOP into a very special session on guns, to help him never waste the crisis of the Annunciation School shooting last month. \u00a0Go figure – the guy who is a walking symbol of tyranny and whose wife gets tingly at the smell of burning rubber wants to gut the amendment that makes being a tyrant risky.\u00a0<\/p>\n

So he’s going to take the show on the road.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “town halls” will no doubt follow the DFL’s format for these things perfected during the Obamacare “debate”; attendees will be screened for loyal membership in the DFL. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the Governor starts scheduling these things in the Metro – and there’s not snowball’s chance on a Dominican beach limbo party that they’ll be anywhere but\u00a0<\/em>the Metro, Duluth or Kim Norton’s Rochester – it might be fun to have a little tailgate party outside. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Hm. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Check back.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
