Ask Walter about his presidential run in 1984
Some guy you've got to endorse you Tim!
I'll be sure to tell my friends!

Walter Mondale has served this country well. Albert Lea should feel honored to have this man visit. Did bobbyg ever serve as a US Senator, US VP or US Ambassador to Japan? Humphrey and Mondale were the forerunners to Wellstone. Minnesota is a blue state. Love it or leave it.

Albert Lea was a strong labor city and the jobs were good. Humphrey and Mondale recognized honest people working hard and remembered Albert Lea. Now Albert Lea cannot support itself but relies on state aid to cities to keep it afloat. Be glad that anyone comes to Albert Lea, the least productive city in the U.S. at the interchange of two interstate highways. Tim and Walter, like Hubert, are good guys.

bobbyg,
Why can't you make your point without being disrespectful for our former Vice President? Healthy debate is productive, but your cheap jab at Mondale is childish.
