Light Rail Coyote

On August 6, Michelle Bachmann explained the liberal agenda:

“This is their agenda,” Bachmann states bluntly. “I know it is hard to believe, it’s hard to fathom — but this is ‘mission accomplished’ for them,” she asserts. “They want Americans to take transit and move to the inner cities. They want Americans to move to the urban core, live in tenements, [and] take light rail to their government jobs. That’s their vision for America.”

It turns out that her opponent is a former Transportation Commissioner who cites construction of a new light rail line as one of his signature accomplishments. So add this to Dole-Hagan on the list of races with somewhat unanticipated transit implications.
