There’s been a lot of hand-wringing around here about what a Delta-Northwest merger could mean for Minnesota’s economy. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution gets even more micro and zooms in on what the departure of Northwest’s headquarters could mean for Eagan. Says Eagan Mayor Mike Maguire: “It’s disconcerting, but it’s weather-able.”
It might be my Midwestern pride, but am I the only one to sense a little dig in the line “Minnesotans, as they like to tell you, are a resilient breed”?
