A little look into some of the races.

Here is how we see some of the political races going down.

Governors Race:

The republicans are out saying the Pawlenty is the most fiscial conservitive governor in some time. You must decide for your self if that is true to you or not. He has done some good things and of course some things many people don't like. With that said we don't believe he has pissed of a huge number of people. Othere then the ones that would not vote for him from day one.

The democrates picked to run some one very contifersil even in there own party. Mike Hatch has done some very odd things to put it nicely as he has been in goverment. He will get a lot of the democrate vote but will not see a lot of cross over from indepentends or republicans.

Jess's party:

I have came to call the Minnesota indepentins party Jess's party. They are running a wacko in Peter Hutichison. This guy to us is farther left then most far left democrats, and may take votes away from Hatch.

We did not give Peter much of a chance to have a good showing but now with Jess backing him and asking the young dumb voters to vote for him he should have an okay showing.

Pick: Tim Pawlenty

The numbers:

Pawlenty 50%

Hatch 25%

Hutchison 25%

U.S. Senate Race

The republicans are running a big name in Mark Kennedy. Mark is well established in Goverment. His record speaks for it's self. It seems as of late however Kenndy has had trouble resinating with the voters, across the State. If he expects to win that will have to change.

The democrats run Amy Klobuchar as there candidate. She has been a lobbist for many years. What she has done or not done also speaks for it's self. She was out of the box much faster then Mark Kennedy and it may pay off for her.

There is a indepent running but he does not have a chance.

Pick: Klobuchar

The numbers:

Klobuchar 65%

Kennedy 35%

More to come, also we will change these if something changes the races so check back for race prediction updates as well.

Why do you feel Hutchinson is so left? I'm not challenging; just asking. I've not really checked him out in much detail.

Chris,

I have had the chance to see him a couple of times at events around that state. In that travel, his speeches have been nothing but more programs, more spending, and allowing us to get fewer high quility jobs.

His site wich is not very good, also have some far left ideas on, he also seems to agree with many of the democrats ideas. Here again I don't care because I have and will still vote for both republicans and democrats, I even vote for those that don't belong to either party.

I understand it is hard to win however when you are not part of the big two party's.

That is why most people big one of those two party's to belong to. I don't like any more then the next person but it is what our political system is all about.

Chris,

Hutchinson has worked in the administration of at least one DFL elected official. He has certainly not always been an "independent"

Pawlenty has been a wondeful governor in Minnesota. His record should propel him to victory in November.

However I guess the numbers will look more like:

48% Pawlenty
41% Hatch

With the remainder spread between Pentel and Hutchinson
