Sixth District congressional contenders Rep. Phil Krinkie and Rep. Jim Knoblach have been beating each other up pretty good on the campaign trail the last few weeks.
But time is running out for either of them to break from the other somehow at the Legislature to show where they differ.
According to Votetracker (and including last night's vote on the higher education bill in Ways and Means), they're 8 for 8 on the major legislation that they've voted on during this session. Here's Krinkie. Here's Knoblach.

hasnt knoblach supported stadium bills in the past? krinkie seems to be dead set against the stadiums. that should certainly play with gop/conservative activists.
Knoblach supported the Gophers stadium in the last session, but voted for it this time. I suppose there's a potential flip-flop ad there somewhere. But the areas where they disagreed in the last session included the state run casino -- Krinkie was against it, Knoblach for it. And ethanol.
