No, Jesse Ventura would get along well with the liberals in the Senate, for he is a total social liberal who sometimes hates to see public funds "wasted." Just because he claims to have been a Navy SEAL (this claim, as I understand it, is disputed), asdoes not make this egomaniac a conservative. He would work well with Daschle and Feinstein and the other liberals. He could even be Daschle's nonpaid bodyguard. I don't think the Bush "pick," Norm Coleman, is "up" (in the preposition of that other Jesse -- Jesse Helms) to run again against Ventura. Look for Coleman to pull out of the Senate race if Ventura enters!

Huh, no way. It would turn into a three way race just like the 98 governors race. With Ventura taking more voters away from Wellstone than Coleman, IMHO.

Think what you want of Ventura...he was a SEAL.

"as does not make this egomaniac a conservative"

I, in no way form or fashion claimed Jesse was a conservative.

My point is: He would be better than Wellstone, almost anyone would be better than Wellstone.

You did get the "egomaniac" part correct though.
