Uh oh!

I think that the Kurt Bills news release just messed with Tony Sutton's prediction as stated in his Star Tribune commentary on June 22, "I can predict today that the story in the first week in October will be just how close the Senate race has become."

Posted on 07/24/12 at 04:08 pm in response to Why so many Republicans are publicly repudiating Bachmann

I know, I know... it's hard to believe, but Rep. Bachmann doesn't just make things up. This time around she got her conspiracy allegations from Frank Gaffney. He founded and is president of the Center for Security. He's been on a tear lately about Muslim Brotherhood "stealth infiltration" of our government.

An example:
He claims that Grover Norquist helped the Brotherhood to establish "information dominance" over the George Bush adminstration.

Want more? Take Gaffney's...

I think that your lead sentence is misleading.

When using percentage growth, this is probably correct.

However, when looking at number of residents, we see a different trend than "slowing dramatically." Here's a table showing population change every ten years (I included 2000-2010 for additional comparison):

2000-2010 2010-2020 2020-2030 2030-2040
+206,000 +294,000 +303,000 +296,000

Thanks for discussion of this important topic.
