Perhaps he already has. The guy has the goods and he's the perfect DFLer for the 6th. Elwyn Tinklenberg would own her in a second in a debate. Perhaps he already has.

It's a minimum efficiency standard that most people don't think an incandescent light bulb can meet. Nowhere in the legislation does it actually outlaw the incandescent. I don’t necessarily agree with banning incandescents but there should be a minimum efficiency standard placed on light bulbs.

Actually — that’s what the “ban on incandescents” actually is. It’s a minimum efficiency standard that most people don’t think an incandescent light bulb can meet. Nowhere in the legislation does it actually outlaw the incandescent.
