Hey Minnesota... Socialist Workers Party?

[Desert Dog]

I was browsing on Fox News website and I pulled up the results from Minnesota. The very lowest candidate on the ballot, Roger Calero, is a member of the Socialist Worker Party???

What is up with that???

If you've ever spent a winter in Minnesnowta—I survived eleven of them—you'll understand how the walls and ceiling can seem to close in after awhile, especially when it's been below zero thirteen straight days, and the wind is roaring in from the Arctic Circle at 65 miles per hour, and the only well plowed parking lots in town are adjacent to liquor stores.

Hard on the mind, those winters. Not everybody survives them.

Minnesota=natives are mostly of Scandinavian descent
Scandinavia= heartland of "benevolent" socialism

It's a societal/cultural thing. Sort of similar to the whole Prairie Home Companion/Wisconsin thing.
