GOP picks St. Paul for 2008 Convention

I read this on a liberal blog and assumed it was the democrats. After 10 seconds of exhilaration I re-read it and confirmed my worst fears-- The Republicans are holding their 2008 convention in the Twin Cities, automatically removing it from contention for the democratic nomination. I can just hear them now,

"Sam Brownback will succeed George W. Bush and we will recapture the House and the Senate!!"

Stay tuned. We'll start organizing the convention protest on Nov. 8, 2006.

    This raises the stakes significantly for Pawlenty. I bet the GOP is desparate to get a hometown boy for the convention. A Brownback-Pawlenty ticket would look mighty tempting. This means TPaw HAS TO LOSE. So stop complaining about what Mike Hatch isn't and let's get him elected.
