Minnesotas Gil Gutknecht couldnt

Minnesota’s Gil Gutknecht couldn’t make it to the caucus meeting to vote on the DeLay Rule. But now he wants in to the Shays Handful after the fact. So says the local paper, the Post-Bulletin (subscription required).

But, according to the quote he gave the paper, he still manages to be for delay.

“I thought it was an enormous mistake to draw more attention to this issue. I think we are far better off dealing with it if and when … I don’t think it serves any constructive purpose to highlight an issue that may never become an issue. If it does become an issue we’re going to have to deal with it, if it’s Mr. DeLay or whoever.”
