I have known Tim Walz for 13 years now. He defeated an entrenched Republican for the 1st CD in 2006 based on facts and expert communication skills he had developed as a teacher in Mankato, a 2 time State Championship Football Coach, and a retired Command Sargeant Major. His effectiveness as a member of Congress will propel Jim to the Governor's Mansion come November.

I have disagreed with him on votes over the years, but Tim remains solid in his values. He wil be a wonderful Governor for Minnesota as he continues the Progressive move forward to keep Minnesota on the forefront for the rest of the country. I will be seeing him in the coming months as the convention season heats up here.
