| Just back from a lonnnnnng weekend in Minneapolis... |
|
And no I did not get into see the President.. Let us just say, traffic in Minneapolis hit an all time high... and those in the cities will know what I am talking about..between the President the Twins and the opening of the new stadium on campus, and first gopher game in the new stadium.. wah hooey..
But be that as it may... I did get a chance to talk to so many people in circles of power, and outside any power at all.
And support for the President has never been higher.
Especially with all that is being dealt with at one time.. I was so pleasantly surprised to talk to and hear from the boots on the ground.
They were always entrenched for the long haul. Just a good thing to hear, and I thought for those who network in the internet, a good thing to hear.
