3. Don't rely on MN
Minnesota has always been a moderate state; it's reputation as liberal is based on a few elections in which a home-state boy was in the race. Bush nearly beat Gore in 2000. All of the suburbs and outstate MN are decidedly Republican. MPLS is the liberal place. And, you are right, the Iron Range has traditionally been liberal. We've always elected Dems up there. Overall, it will be a close one... Bush could even win here. We elected a Bush-picked Senator and an extreme right-nazi Governor in 2002. What's next for Minnesota? We're becoming more like Montana every day.
