Does it seem to you that the Senate DFLers didn’t hear the two Mn. Rep. DFLers (one from Duluth, one from Henn.or Mpls) last night in the Mn. House debate on new ball park, when the Rep. from Duluth told us that the unemployment rate of trades persons there was over 40% and the DFLer Rep from Mpls told us the unemployment from same group of workers was over 20% and that the work on new ball park would drop that unemployment rate to about ZERO? As you now have learned, the DFLers in House didn’t hear these two DFLers and their unemployment figures, because most or them voted NO on the new ball park. Lets hope these DFLers in Mn. Senate did hear the two DFLers and the large percent of their workers unemployed and vote for the bonding so at least SOME of them can go back to work and bring home a paycheck. Do wonder if President BHO knows about that many workers unemployed in those two cities(Mpls, Duluth) . HIS percent of unemployed is only 8.1% not 20 to 40%
Hot debate. What do you think?

That last sentence is pretty confusing, carl.
Just what do you mean? I understand the national unemployment rate has dropped to 8.1%, but where is it 20-40%?
