Now he tells us....

Waldofg0_2 The Albert Lea Tribune reports Congressional candidate to be in Albert Lea Wednesday:

"Davis, a physician at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, will speak at 7 p.m. at the Fairlane Building. Organizers say he will spell out his plans to lower medical costs."

Somehow, we don't think those plans will involve covering everyone.  On the other hand, since Davis is a global warming denier, we can probably stop worrying that setting the uninsured sick and children adrift on ice floes will be a part of his plan.

Whatever they aren't, we suspect the plans will be a reactionary reply to this dig in the Star Tribune's editorial that ended in the endorsement of Congressman Walz:

". . .His years as a physician apparently haven't inspired passion for fixing the nation's health care system or deep insights. His standard-issue proposals contrast unfavorably with the fiery expertise of his boss, Mayo CEO Dr. Denis Cortese, who campaigned nationally this year for systemic overhaul. . . ."

Image: Can you find Brian Davis's meeting in our artist's rendition of the Freeborn County Fairgrounds? We're curious why Davis is making his presentation in Albert Lea, rather than Southern Minnesota's Medical City. Like the Star Tribune, daily newspapers in both Rochester and Albert Lea endorsed Congressman Walz.
