Minnesota, IMO, is not really in play.
There has been ONLY ONE poll all year long showing the President up... and that poll is over a month old and only showed President Bush up 2.
We would be foolish to spend any time in Minnesota when Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Iowa, and Ohio are all clearly closer.

Ohio is vital. Minnesota is closer then PA will ever be. Iowa is a lost cause. TOO much hard core labor activists and Harkin is popular even if he is a nut job. Don't know about NM but it is only 5. Flipping MN is a 20 point swing. Knocks 10 off Kerry ADDS 10 to Bush. Sorry but you are focusing far too much on polls that are weighted by registration. Lots of old Democrats here are conservative Democrats. We are the only State with a DEMOCRAT PRO LIFE caucus. They will never admit it to anyone, but a lot of these people are going to the booth and pulling the R lever. Coleman won Minnesota in 2002 by MORE votes then Bush LOST it in 2000. Sorry but you are over fixed on poorly designed polls while I am living it here on the ground. MINNESOTA is in play.
