[Mpls] Apologies!

[Annie Young]

To many friends on the Minneapolis Issues list:
This is my last response to the debacle going on between Doug Mann and the 
Green Party.  I am sorry to see this "dirty" laundry being sent to everyone 
in the City.

And lastly Doug:
Regarding my support of DFLers, etc. - Good grief, Doug more DFLers than 
Greens continue to re-elect me to office - Everyone in this city is my 
constuient - no matter their party. And the last I looked I thought that 
one of the ways to develop political acumen and garner votes was and is:
Win friends and influence people.

When one is elected to office it is wise to build coalitions and garner 
partnerships.  After all the name of the game is "COUNT THE VOTES".  No 
matter one's ilk or issue - it talks xxx amount of votes to get it 
passed.  In my case, 5 - in Dean's or Natalie's case, 7.

In my book, the above means, plain and simple:
DOUG, YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE VOTES!
Over and out,
Annie Young
