held my nose and voted for Coleman
it wasn’t easy, and your reasoning was mine too, Minnesotans are going to learn the hard way for the overwhelming stupidity of supporting Democrats=>you pay, they spend
Funnier then Al Franken is his failure to mention that much of the service at the Mayo Clinic is for Canadians fleeing their failed system.
Man, slow that down. I had to do a screen capture to read it.
You may have to hold your nose again and vote for Coleman for Governor next year . . . I don’t think that you’ll see a Michelle Bachmann or some such 100% conservative running in the primary, and Coleman may be as good as it gets for the GOP. And the DFL is sure to nominate some whackjob, with the Independence Party candidate (if any) not that much better.
BTW, the 2010 elections will be crucial in MN, since the party that wins the governorship and legislature will control redistricting after the 2010 Census. Congressional redistricting in MN will be a huge deal in 2011, since MN is slated to lose a U.S. House seat.
The Democrats could draw a plan that leaves just one GOP district in the Twin City exurbs, one Republican-leaning district for conservative Democrat Collin Peterson, and 5 comfortably Democrat districts; the Republicans could draw one über-Democrat district in the Twin Cities core, one strongly Democrat district going from the Iron Range to the Catholic parts of Ramsey County (which would probably elect a pro-life, pro-gun Democrat like Oberstar) and 5 GOP-leaning districts in the rest of the state. Yes, the U.S. House delegation could be 5-2 Republican or 6-1 Democrat depending on the results of the 2010 state elections.
The only silver lining if the Democrats control redistricting and draw a map that hurts the GOP is that it may convince Michelle Bachmann or John Kline to run for the Senate against Klobuchar in 2012.
“For that matter how will the elite medical institutions survive?”
It’ll be available for important people - like politicians and Party bosses.
Just like the good ‘ole USSR.
I am from Minnesota, and I voted against Al Frankenstein, the commie pig clown. What an embarrassment!!! Voters who pull the lever for demoRATs in any state or for any office (including the 53% retards who voted for 0bozo) are without a doubt the dumbest people on the planet. That includes my hard left Phd educated boss, who is a complete idiot & buffoon when it comes to election time and supporting demoRAT socialists. Face it, the American voters who vote for demoRAT socialists are dumber than dirt. I don’t care how many titles are behind their name. Idiots & buffoons!!!
Franken and tar and feathers should forever be used in the same sentence.
Yes there was a choice. And people in MN picked the WRONG choice. Plain and simple.
Franken just got elected.
See you idiots in Mn in 5 years. :D
No the MSC and Sec. of State cost Norm the election.
Good point, the Minnesota Supreme Court also wanted their Democrat vote in the Senate
