Never Thought I Would Say This About Minnesota
A state with common sense. No Trump, no Hilary as Rubio and Sanders win the primary.

Re: Never Thought I Would Say This About Minnesota
Minnesota politics has always interested me. You guys don't seem to give a fuck about trends or ideology - from Wellstone to Bachman. And I'm one of the few that actually admired you guys for voting in Ventura.Gil Dobie wrote:A state with common sense. No Trump, no Hilary as Rubio and Sanders win the primary.
Perhaps a carryover from the days of the Chataqua's - a combination of Norse stoicism/agrarianism mixed with a some liberal populism?

Well, Minnesota has learned from their experiences with celebrities running for and winning political office.

I've only heard of Minot from Gil. I assumed it was in Minnesota. What's the population there? 8?

Minot, the Magic City, is about 47,000 people, 8 ICBM's, and it snows horizontally.

Re: Never Thought I Would Say This About Minnesota
What's truly important is that Kalm's grandma Bea was born in the Magic City and Kalm traveled through their in the summer of '86 during a grasshopper infestation. They were 6 layers deep in the grill of the '79 pale yellow LTD.Gil Dobie wrote:Minot, the Magic City, is about 47,000 people, 8 ICBM's, and it snows horizontally.
For Gil: I remember Grandma Bea making lefse on the cast iron wood stove at their house. Delicious!
For Andy: what an a-hole...

Wow, I figured if there was one state that Trump would win, it would be the state that elected Jesse "The Body" Ventura and Al Franken....
