Oh spare me Jessie Ventura and his
self-righteous crap about all the parties...

Yes, and when you were in politics, you never did a politically motivated thing, right Jessie? YOU were pure as the driven snow. And still so superior.

Why the heck is he even on tv?

3. Maybe he's hoping for a reality show.
Like Ozzie and Gene Simmons.

4. LOL
He's probably superior to them, too.

I'm thinking maybe he and Ralph should just get together. They could have a grand old time complaining. And achieving nothing.

Because Minnesota is so DONE with his ass as governor, that's why. That, and to feed that humungous ego! That cocky head-rolling almost looks like some kind of neurological disease, but I think it's just rampant self-adoration.


Edit to add: Seriously, because he's considering jumping into the Coleman/Franken Senate race. He'll let us know in July. How precious.

8. He's peddling his new book
Pray for us - Ventura is threatening to run for Senate. I fear a 3 way race would only work in Coleman's favor.

Though, as much as I dislike Ventura, the local AAR station played his smack down of Michael Reagan from Larry King's show and it was gratifying to hear.

6. No one is listening to Ralph any more...
...so somehow this guy gets airtime and parrots the rhetoric.

How is it that every election year, someone is able to get on the GOP-controlled media to repeat a lie that benefits the GOP?

7. He was a failure as Governor and he's still an idiot and a joke

9. I used to live in MN, and i can tell you
Ventura is either loved or hated. I find him embarrassing. But he DID get elected governor. He has great appeal (understatement) among independents.

He could pull it off for Senate. I think he will help Coleman, but I would not be surprised at all if he actually won the election for Senate.
