“Every pair of the body politic parts in Minnesota is blue...there are two many people that like that socialism stuff...Much better to get for free what others work for.
Minnesota...the land of the white out weather, and the white hearts and empty heads. Stupid, but honest...”
Hey~ MN political maps following the last several Pres. elections show the same pattern of city vs rural as in other places.
It is true that we have a history of losts of outright socialism in the 1930’s which is still lingering in the populace in NE MN, but is beginning to crack up with the Democrats stubborn resistance to all mining interests. The laborers are restless - witness the defeat of James Oberstar in 2010 by Chip Cravaak.
My concern is that the GOP continues to ignore our state and therefore it is hard to overcome the liberal biases of the Twin Cities and Duluth metro areas as well as all the dimwits on our university campuses. Does MN have a higher percentage of universities than average? College professors are hopeless unless they are in the sciences or business/econ subjects.
Central MN GOP is poised to capture every single elective office in the MN House and Senate in Nov. 2012.
