From the MPR News feature Edina is key suburban battleground this campaign:
Some political observers were surprised two years ago when Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry won in the Minneapolis suburb of Edina, long considered a Republican stronghold. This year's election will test whether that was a fluke. A veteran of the war in Iraq, DFLer Andrew Borene, is challenging state Sen. Geoff Michel, R-Edina. Borene said Michel is too conservative for a district that's traditionally elected moderates. Michel said voters will judge him on his accomplishments.
From your perspective, is Edina changing politically? Why or why not?

My guess is that harried commuters will look to Borene.
