Overheard: Master debaters spar over stadium
"I'd like to thank the 6th Congressional District race for this [debate]. And the Blanden paper company thanks you too."
--State Rep. Loren Solberg (DFL-Grand Rapids), during last night's protracted debate over a Gopher football stadium, to Rep. Jim Knoblach and Rep. Phil Krinkie. Knoblach and Krinkie, each responsible for proposing a slew of amendments to the stadium bill, are vying to be the Republican candidate for the congressional seat.
