COMING TOGETHER
Regardless the outcome, we're all still Americans
I am not a politician, a comedian or an angry man. For me, the presidential campaign has been eye-opening, informative and an interesting study in human nature.
When I filter out all the noise and nonsense, I find the major candidates to be good citizens and honorable and patriotic people. I have made my choices in good conscience and now eagerly await Election Day. Whoever wins will have my support, my energy and my willingness to sacrifice in the difficult and challenging years ahead.
After all is said and done, we are Americans, and we will pull together.

ELECTION '08
Letter writers sound off on candidates, issues
House District 38A Rep. Sandra Masin was approached by the Chamber of Commerce, in her role as a member of the Transportation Finance Committee, to rescue the Transportation Finance bill, vetoed by the governor. Her work with both parties helped pass that funding. We now have money to make bridges and roads safe in our state, and businesses again have arteries to transport their goods.
In a faltering economy, Sandra Masin stood for a plan that brings high-speed broadband Internet access to all parts of the state. Her vision, and her methodical, hard work in important technology and education committees, have served the citizens of 38A well.
VIVIAN NEIGER, EAGAN
