I have to respectfully disagree (that Mn is in play)
HUGE obstacles to overcome in this state-
1. RED Startribune- 100% in Demonrat pocket- ALL news
Stories disparage conservatives and help the most Radical
Demonrats- - (Franken, Keith Ellison, Mark Dayton.)
2. St paul pioneer depressed- Again, majority news in favor
of the Rats- AND they are Pro big union even more than
The Redstar.
3. Duluth News- same
4. Rochester news -same
So... most people get a slant towards the Demons
5. Churches- ELCA- pro Homosexual openly endorse same sex
unions,homo,lesbian and transgender pastors.
The Catholic Church for years- (if not Decades) promoted
homsexual unions- (Even held “celebration Masses)in churches -Even at the Cathedral in St. Paul. so, morally the
people of Minn. have an uphill battle- (this crap was
taught to their kids)
I hope I am wrong, but there are alot of O’bummer voters that I meet in the twin cities- (mostly women)
“I have to respectfully disagree (that Mn is in play). HUGE obstacles to overcome in this state-”
Most of the reasons that you give have much more effect when you had two candidates that were not all that well known to the voting public (as opposed to us political junkies). So back then, they heard us extremists saying things like Obama is a Socialist - but the newspapers instead said that he was all but the Second Coming of Christ - so who does the public at large believe? Unfortunately, the media.
Now things are different (as Jimmy Carter learned) - now people have had nearly 4 years to form their own opinions of him. Yes, blacks still love him - but others, I don’t think so...and the guilt-vote is gone. These people did what was required of them (for owning slaves, right up until 2007, LOL) and voted to make up for it. Those votes are GONE, which is why the president is going to get his clocked cleaned as long as Romney doesn’t do anything really dumb...which he hasn’t yet.
