You should learn from old Italian ladies standing all day at the window and knowing everything about their neighbors.

I had a guy in an Elantra (why is it always Hyundais and Nissans?) fly up on me at like 90 flashing his lights as I was trying to pass a semi. Where the fuck do you want me to go, moron? Merge into the semi? Or instantly kick it up to 90 so you don’t have to feel the indignity of touching your brake pedal?

I’d argue tailgating is actually the universal sign for “I think I am more important than you and I don’t care if I rear end you.”

She sounds great, but who knows how well she’ll navigate the role. As a Minnesotan, I certainly hope she kicks ass but I’m still holding onto the thin thread of hope that Franken won’t actually resign before that bullshit Roger Stone operation is investigated. But then again, we are looking for MN governor candidates…

As you single out the admirable voting record of black women, Jewish women, Latinas, Lesbians (of any ethnicity/faith). Not mentioned here are Muslim and Catholic women, who also tend to vote Democratic.

Your analysis of Minnesota politics is just dead wrong. It is strongly blue in the Twin Cities metro area and around some of the larger small cities, Duluth for example. Ever heard of a Michelle Bachman? She is from Minnesota. We have two conservative radio show hosts in the U.S. House. St. Cloud is a city that wanted…

I stand by my comment. It wasn’t only the SNL women. Women who worked closely with Senator Franken were defending him immediately. I do not understand why people are so willing to dismiss the statements of women who worked daily with Franken in order to believe the statements of women who had one brief moment of…

3 of MN’s 8 reps in the US House are Rs. In the MN legislature, there are 57 DFLers and 76 Rs. In the MN senate, Rs hold 51% of seats and the DFL has 49%.

I’m concerned because they’ll have to run both Klobuchar for reelection and this seat at the same time. That’s a lot.

2018. If he resigns tomorrow MN law is that the special election is held the following election. It puts both US Senate seats up for reelection. It spreads the funds and now a story to run against.

Right move for who? For those of us who get to feel smug that justice was served in regard to this one man? Or for Franken’s constuents and people who make actual laws that impact the entire country? It’s likely enough he’ll be replaced with a republican in a special election. I don’t really value the smug feelings I…

There will be a special election and a republican may very possibly win. Not “prudent”.

The problem is that any replacement made by a Democrat senator would only be in place until a special election is held in 2018. And the thing about Minnesota is that when Franken ran against a Republican in 2008, he just barely won after a protracted and litigated recount process. 2018 is also an off year and happens…

His policies and work in the Senate actively help us, all of us. What he did was crude - but not pedophilia, not threatening to take someone’s job if they told, women that he’s worked with say that he wasn’t a pig, and he has issued what appears to be a very heartfelt apology. He needs to be called to account, but not…

No, he doesn’t.

There is a process and Minnesota can recall his ass if they want to and then they can decide if they want to elect him again, knowing what they know now.

That is what needs to be considered. He doesn’t need to stop being a senator, and a good senator, and injure the people of Minnesota by leaving the…

My neighbors have a bunch of star wars blow up characters in their yard, maybe they’ll invite you over for life day?

Oh. I see how it is. You all pretend to be all progressive on things like women’s rights and LGBTQ issues but when it comes to religion, all you all care about is Christmas.

That hypothetical progressive would only fill that spot until a special election, which would have to be next November.

For all of the you saying it will be fine if he resigns since MN is a blue state... Clinton one by 1.5%. It was a blue state. It is rapidly turning. http://m.startribune.com/clinton-trump-battle-for-minnesota-in-early-returns/400485621/
