“Excuse me, but only half of Minnesotans must be complete morons— and they seem to be mostly concentrated in the population centers. Probably not much different than in your state.”
Well, I am puzzled by all Demorat voters, but I think comparing Sherrod Brown (our young Senate demorat) to Al Franken is a bit of a stretch. I’d like to think that Al Franken would not get half (or even a tenth) the voters in Ohio, but Minnesota seems to really go for the nut jobs. Even Kalifornia rats tends to run well qualified Senate candidates. Or, maybe its just a lot of party loyalty as you suggest. Yea, wait a minute, Ventura wasn’t even a Democrat. And there’s some Muslin character up there.
No I don’t see the comparison.
I don't know Ohio politics at all. My comparison was strictly Democrat vs. Republican percentage voters.

I think you'd end up being surprised with the number of votes he'd get, even in Ohio. Also, regarding our stealth Muslim candidate, I don't think it's going to be too long before Ohio elects one, so enjoy our pain while you can.
As for Ventura, he won primarily because the other two candidates were arguably terrible. And he wasn't the disaster I thought he was going to be. He lowered vehicle registration fees a good amount, returned a tax refund, and stuck it to education to justify their funding-- all without making too big a mess of things-- arguably better than the equally unqualified Governor of Kalifornia.
