		Coleman’s strong showing in the Sept. 13 primary election, in which he beat Kelly by a nearly 2-to-1 ratio, added to the sense that voters in the city are ready for change, Coleman said.
		Although “vision” is a broad term, Coleman was able to elucidate some of his core values that distinguish him from what he said was a mayor’s office that is out of touch with its populace.
		Coleman’s campaign was the target of a Kelly speech in which the mayor sought to explain his endorsement of President George W. Bush for the 2004 election.

		The former Mayor of the City of Saint Paul, Minnesota, one Randy Kelly, is, however, a career politician.
		As such, deceptions and falsehoods are part of his professional stock-in-trade, and so pointing out his lies is, in an awkward and backhanded sort of way, a compliment.
		As his reelection loomed, Kelly championed his prowess at being a law-and-order politician, boasting his thirty-percent reduction in crime while Mayor.

	The First Ring: November 2005
		Unfortunately when inspiring young Chris, Grandma didn’t specify how long he’d be sitting as mayor as Coleman faces a complex set of challenges all stemming from the simplistic reasons for the scale of his victory.
		Coleman ran a cautious campaign that, at least after the primary, went fairly straight down the middle of the road with occasional exits to bash Bush and Pawlenty, followed quickly by taking the nearest on-ramp back to rhetorical moderation.
		Coleman inherits a broad base coalition of centrist and progressive voters, both of whom believe they’ve either elected a follower or at least a sympathizer with their values, and a city budget deficit of $14 million that will immediately test his loyalties.

	Shot In The Dark: Puff Dougie
		While Coleman and Kelly have their differences (Coleman was "moderate" enough to earn a fair dose of emnity from liberal DFLers, many of whom deserted the party to vote Green in the primary), the Bush endorsement is the only big fl line between the two.
		And Coleman is running one of the dirtiest, muddiest campaigns ever in Saint Paul.
		And Coleman is spinning - and Grow is disingenuously, uncritically passing it on - if he says any differently.

		Sharon Anderson and the inebriated Glen Mansfield provided a sometimes entertaining sideshow to the measured responses of DFLer Chris Coleman and Green Party endorsed Elizabeth Dickinson.
		Chris Coleman, who maintained a brilliant poker face throughout Sharon's insanity (she often poked fun at him also), was impressive in his ideas and wit.
		I have to think that either Coleman or Dickinson would be better for St Paul in the 21st century than Kelly - a man who seems more focused on himself than anything else.
