I want to make it clear that the only difference I believe there is between Mr. Zimmermann and other members of the council is that Mr. Zimmermann was not properly briefed on the proper syntax for accepting contributions. Really, we're talking about the difference here in a few verbs and adjectives. Say it right and you're reelected, say it wrong and you're in court. The DFL has so much more experience in these matters. The smart DFLers know the difference between an NRP home improvement loan and a little bit of free plumbing. I'll not forget my impression of Joe Biernat hand in the cookie jar attitude, "Why me? Why can't I end up with a great cooperate job after I leave office?"
