Good call. Minnesota has been slowly trending Republican for some time. It's also a new site for a major convention and could help a fresh Republican face stand out from the gaggle of retreads likely to be running for the Donkeys. That includes Her Thighness, a Presidential "virgin" who will seem more like a used-up old hooker by '08.
What do you mean "seem like"?
I like your analogy. Indeed ol' Hill is not aging well (angry, disgruntled people rarely do), and I don't know if there is enough make-up on this planet that will make her look even half-decent in a couple years.
