What makes Robert Fitzgerald run?

Broadcast: Midday, 10/16/2006, 11:06 a.m.

Listen to program

Independence Party candidate Robert Fitzgerald is barely old enough to be elected to the Senate, traverses the state in a vegetable-oil-powered bus, and runs with all the passion and energy of a frontrunner. Fitzgerald joins MPR's Midday as part of its "Meet the Candidates" series.
