Yeah and MN wound up with that psycho Ventura.

All it takes is a good act and for people to continue not vetting things. Kind of like how Obama got in.

he was a big mouth, but he actually did some things:

- stopped state funding for a stadium
- lowered taxes
- Kicked out all lobbyists
- Made the media wear tags that say “I’m a jackal” if they wanted to attend any state function.

“skip” humphrey- hubert Humphrey’s (former U.S. VP) son
running against norm coleman- lifelong DEMOCRAT!
that switched parties!- with Jesse the “body”ventura-

Jesse was the king of 1 liners- a couple I remember:

1. all 3 candidates debating -Jesse: “I am the only
candidate here that sends my kids to public school-
not an elite private school-

2. I can make tough decisions- I was a Navy seal-

3. you can’t BUY me- I have no loyalty to either party
or any FAT cats.

So Jesse Rocked the world- his chief of staff a flaming homosexual- (arrested for solicitation)-Jesse hated Christians -
(even though his wife went to church regularly)

Both demons and repugs hated Jesse- so guess what?
they banded together-!! and overturned more than a Dozen
of his vetoes- (also re-writing his legislation for
budget, laws , and other amendments)

They will do this against Trump - or anyone allied with the
Tea Party-

A true sadist.
