Holy Whirlwind Batman!

Hello MiNdependents!

That's right, from now on anyone visiting this site is an unofficial official MiNdependent. That means that you subscribe to your own brand of thinking, you don't take rhetoric well, you listen to your heart, you don't let your party tell you what to do, and you're generally a pretty swell person. Congratulations!

Huzzah! We're in the STrib - sweet, sweet vindication. I'm not sure why but it feels like we're already making a difference.

Our press release was a success! They picked out all the major points, even the address! It’s a small story just spreading the word but it will make a big difference (legitimate press rocks!) They even called Rybak for a comment. He said he’s “1,000 percent behind Obama.”

Obama asking for clarification of election finance rules – he wants to know if he takes federal funding for his campaign to start with then starts receiving private donations, if he can just give the federal money back. You gotta have some start-up capitol I guess he figures. I think he realizes he’s not going to drum up the type of go-jillions that the other candidates might.


Here's a link to all the coverage that Obama's been mentioned in from the Washington Post:

See you all next time! Keep hoping!
