Are you familiar with this guy? Did he suddenly see the light or merely an opportunist?

I heard a rumor about this yesterday, but I forgot about it. It's nice to have a piece of good news - for what it's worth - after watching Fox News Sunday this morning and generally feeling downhearted afterward. I sure hope this guy's a trendsetter!

A very long time ago, at the start of the Cold War a Republican Senator from Michigan, Arthur Vanderberg supported Harry Truman's Marshall Plan and Truman Doctrine. Asked why he would support the policies of a dedicated Democrat like Truman, Vandenberg is said to have commented that partisanship stops at the water's edge.
Republicans still mostly believe that. See Dole and McCain during Bosnia. Democrats appear to have lost interest in anythng but the partisanship that will allow them to Tax Tax Tax, Spend Spend Spend, and Elect, Elect, Elect.

As I alluded on another thread: Kelly, while a Democrat, owes his election to Pawlenty and Coleman. Kelly squeeked into office by beating out a more liberal Democrat who was the favorite of the party apparatus. Like Coleman, Kelly will have to becme a Republican if he wants to run for higher office.

Minneapolis is more conservative than St. Paul
NOT.... Mpls is so far left they still believe wellstone is running for re-election (his signs are still in yards) they all have bumper stickers that say WWWD (What Would Wellstone Do) St.Paul is still left of center, but still on the left. Mpls is union controlled and dominated by the wacko left euphorians that believe God is corrupt, the Bible is a book of lies made up by a bunch of fishermen, gays are ok, abortion should be mandatory, and combustion engines will be the cause of death for 'Mother Earth" (btw the earth is NOT my mother) When Coleman was mayor of St.Paul, he switched from dfl (Dumb F'n Liberals) to Republican and stated " I am not leaving the democrat party, the democrat party left me."

Well, I got some wrong info then.
I remember distinctly reading that Hennepin County was less liberal than Ramsey County..........but I don't know how to come up with the article.
Do you have stats on the 2000 election regarding the two counties?

"I believe that Minneapolis is more conservative than St. Paul, so this is REALLY good news!"
I hope you're talking about Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Kansas, not Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Minnesota.
The only place Minneapolis is more conservative than is San Fransisco and Lenningrad.

No. Minneapolis is SUPER liberal. It's city council consists of 2 Greens and 11 Democrats. A Republican couldn't win a city wide (or council) race if they were the only one on the ballot. St.Paul is also heavily Democrat, but much more of the traditional, blue collar, conservative type. The growing suburbs of both cities, meanwhile, are trending Republican, as are many of the rural areas.
To: ohioWfan
My friend, the opposition party here in Mpls is the Green party. For all practical purposes there is no republican party in Mpls, and there hasn't been since the mid 70s.
