Rep. McCollum's Town Hall Meeting at Macalester College
Yes, I was there with my big red sign that read "More debt? Print more money?". I got in, one of only 400. I would presume that more than a couple thousand were there by 6:00 PM, and the show didn't start till 7:00PM. And could you believe it? The place was packed with pre-made Obama signs that said "THANK YOU". I didn't see any pre-made signs from the insurance lobby, just simple homemade signs.
Well, they did a good job stacking the deck, but their cards weren't drawn. You received a perforated 2 piece raffle ticket, one to hold on to and one that went into a big wicker basket. If they drew your number, you got to speak. Well, if you stacked the deck, you'd think that you would get "your people" to speak. A majority of the people who got to speak were against the increase in government health care! It really baffled them! Hey, check out Sue Jeffiers , she was taking better notes than me and has an exact count. I 'm sure she will have some great insights on tonight.
If you go to Minnesota Majority they were filming tonight, so follow their website too for some great video.
One thing that did make me chuckle is that after a man expressed his concern about abortion in the proposed legislation, Rep. McCollum commented he had "valid talking points". Not opinion, not a closely held religious belief, but his concern was a "talking point".

I agree that some things probably could be done differently and to greater effect

People deserve very good life time and mortgage loans or short term loan will make it better. Because people's freedom is based on money.
