Walz hosts a noisy, yet rather civil town hall

http://www.startribune.com/politics/state/53888682.html?elr=KArksLckD8EQDUoaEyqyP4O:DW3ckUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUac8HEaDiaMDCinchO7DU

Questioners supported a government-backed option to private insurance, decried profit in health care, took a side step into energy policy, bemoaned that millions have no health coverage today and urged that the congressional health proposals be completely scrapped.

Walz’s staff said he likely will hold a similar town meeting on health care next month in Rochester.

“It’s important to be here,” Gloria Platz, of Springfield, Minn., said as she waited for two hours with her husband, Albert. “I’m worried that some of this money is going to pay for abortions and that our Medicare health care may be rationed.”
