It wasn't that long ago

That Peter Hutchinson in the debate setting was telling voters that the roads in Minnesota "suck". I'm not going to say had we elected Hutchinson this bridge collapse wouldn't have happened, but it sure would have been nice if we had a Governor who would directly convey information to the citizens. To Governor Pawlenty's defense it appears this bridge wasn't considered the most unsafe in Minnesota. Of course those less safe bridges have not been shut down so either the idea that these bridges need immediate inspection is PR or he is willing to play Russian Roulette with other peoples lives.
