All I can say is that was an eye opening experience, that I thought at the time would be tough to duplicate. I actually came there to sincerly pay respect to Senator Wellstone, even though I thought he was a communist. I got no sense that anyone there cared about him.
There is a saying that liberals only care about groups of people, and conservatives only care about individuals.(or something like that)
I agree with that, and I think that really sums it up.
