The Eighth Congressional District DFL Convention opens today in Duluth. I’ll be covering the convention from the audience of Hibbing Community College Theatre’s production of “Born Yesterday” (tonight at 7:30 with a Sunday matinee!) via my cell phone that will be switched off. I expect my coverage of the convention to be among the worst ever. Call me when Oberstar retires. Meantime, he’s not retiring. He’s in great health, chairs transportation and his Republican opponent remains theoretical.
PRESS RELEASE: Oberstar to Kick Off 2008 Campaign in Duluth
