I do not understand the new Minnesota. A friendly beautiful but very cold in winter state once known for sensible hard working farmers, foresters and acute small business enterprise has been turned away from God and country into a dithering mess. Jesse Ventura, Norm Coleman, Keith Ellison, Al Franken and now this chit bird. WTF goes with the great people I once knew from Minnesota?
Sections of the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul are rat holes. Those cites contain enough votes to sway most elections.
Most Minnesotans are pretty normal, although there is a lot of "all my family has always voted Democrat" that takes place.
I live in Minnesota farm country. There are many farmers who are socially and fiscally conservative that nonetheless vote for Democrats. Bad habits are hard to shake.
