I may just be going insane here
May? :-)
I don't know about Ramsey (that's on the other side of the river and they don't let us over there) but Hennepin county includes some suburbs and so it is a bit more conservative than the Mpls city government. There are even some republicans on the Hennepin county board, but it's a matter of degrees. The seven county metro area is still one of the most leftwing areas in the country. I'd have to say that Ramsey county is the more conservative.

It will give you county by county vote totals from the 2002 Senate race between Coleman and Mondale/Wellstone.
St. Paul is very Irish-Catholic Democrat.
Following the Coleman example. Gutsy. He'll take heat for this big time.
FNS was awful!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why are all these so-called Republicans like Barnes & Kristol in the tank for Kerry?
For those fortunate enough to have not watched: instead of the Marines at Wendy's story, we got a meaningless story about a couple of Republicans named Reagan who are now voting for Kerry because his speech at the Convention was so marvelous. We got told that Kerry is "best positioned since Clinton in 92" to win. We got told Bush's approval was at 45% and we were treated to a discussion of the Newsweek poll and not a word about the Gallup/CNN/USA Today.
I wrote them a letter.I offered facts against each of these stories/opinions. Fair and balanced, my A$$.
Mayor Kelly may recognize the danger of a sKerry presidency. Let's face it, until 9/11 we here in America lived very free of terrorism. After 9/11 everything changed and Mayor Kelly may worry, as so many Americans do these days, about the future of their children and grandchildren. He's afraid, as many of us are, and he's not willing to trust their future to the insane Decocrat Party. Nor are we - a National Party no more.
BUMP!
Love it!
My belief is that Democrats, as welll as Undecideds, will look at the VERY FIRST DECISION made by John Kerry and conclude that:
A man who chooses his VP so foolishly cannot be relied upon to make other crucial decisions about protecting America.
Great news!
Saint Paul, first you guys get the Wild, You're probably going to get the Twins and now this. I'm moving there!
Um... no.
Re: 7
Whatever the mayor's reasons, he's taking a huge chance if his voting base doesn't agree with him.
and the Hit's just keep right on coming...
Good analysis, and thanks for saving me the effort. :-)
I've driven through STP. The voting bloc is conservative. Even on liberal University Ave.
I believe that Minneapolis is more conservative than St. Paul, so this is REALLY good news!
Other way around. Mpls is WAY liberal, St Paul more conservative, but still a very liberal state, here in MN.
Sorry, it's just that when us Minnesotans see eachother on the web, we just like to talk about our beautiful state.
Minniesodians can't be all that dumb if they were able to see through that buffoon Jesse Ventura. Go, Bush, Go!
Hitlery's FBI files are coming in pretty handy.
