What's Wrong In Minnesota?

I haven't yet had much to say about the election stealing nearly complete in Minnesota. Nothing is more disastrous, nor more dangerous for our Republic than corrupting the integrity of our elections as partisan politics is now doing more and more.

It's just as sad as it is anger producing. But with partisan hacks controlling elections in more and more of America, I'm not sure how the trend can change. Much of the so-called electorate doesn't even seem to care.

But that isn't the only problem in Minnesota. This whole process doesn't say much for Norm Coleman either. If a sitting Senator doesn't have enough support to win an election, Third Party candidate, or not, clearly not enough Minnesotans were impressed with Coleman to care about his candidacy all that much.

Frankly, I don't know much about him. And I certainly didn't want him, as a Republican, to lose. But then, what's a Republican anymore? Until that party defines some type of identity for itself again, who's to say?

I'm not optimistic as regards any potential court challenges, but we'll see.

As for Minnesota - first Ventura, now Franken? They should consider leaving the Republic and joining up with Canada to be part of some Northern Hemispheric joke. Though frankly, that's a little too harsh as regards Canada.

Many of our politicians have been shams for years. Now an increasing number of our elections and our "electorate" are, too. If the trend continues the outcome is predictable and does not bode well for a future America anything like the great nation that it's been.

More and more I fear it will take some significant cultural upheaval or major catastrophic event to turn things around.

Ug, Jharp is a lost cause, I love whoever pointed out the inherent contradiction of his statements that health care costs hurt U.S. businesses while continually saying we're the richest country in the world. Funny but very instructive.

He is probably the worst case I have ever seen of someone who uses facts and statistics but has ZERO and I do mean ZERO understanding of what they mean in context.
