Why we can't (won't) win

"Here is what the DFL does that the MNGOP does not do. Once the dust settles and the primary is over, they gather around the winner. It really does not matter to them how corrupt or imperfect their candidates are. They vote lock, stock and barrel. Meanwhile, many in MNGOP are still bemoaning the imperfect flowers in the bunch, as they wonder how and why they lost (again)."

The story goes as follows. Every two or four years, a man goes into a flower shop to buy some flowers for a lady friend. One shop which he goes into, has vastly superior flowers to any other shop, and his lady friend much prefers them to any others. But this man is very particular. Quite often, he will spot one flower in a perfect bunch which is less than perfect. For that reason alone, he leaves the shop empty handed. He instead, goes to a flower shop down the road which has flowers which are far less attractive. Many are diseased. But to keep from getting that one imperfect flower at the other store, he (out of spite) - buys the far less attractive and diseased flowers. And this happens over and over and over again.

Welcome to MNGOP. This is the land where (believe it or not), we still have enough registered Republicans to win statewide elections. Proven fact. But (and this is going to sting a bit) - we have far too many of the MNGOP voters who are like the man who did not buy the nice bunch of flowers with one flower which was imperfect. And the stink of how we vote is already in the air. How so? The DFL, which are running pretty much the same bunch of fraud infested losers they have had for years, out voted MNGOP by a margin of 2 to 1 in the primary. THAT - does not bode well for the general election.

I am a lifelong Republican. I have never been a Democrat. That being said, Republicans frustrate me in this state. Why? The knives are already out for Lisa Demuth. RINO! Loser! All kinds of names which should never be used for our candidates. Is Lisa the best candidate for governor we have ever had? Maybe not - but in my book she is pretty darned good, and hundred times better than Hotdish Amy. But we have many MNGOP folks, some even being state delegates, who will SIT THIS ELECTION OUT, rather than vote for Lisa. Is that cutting off your nose in spite of your face, or what. We will lose another election just because many MNGOP types have hurt feelings and will either vote third party, or not at all. Same outcome.

And we can't forget about Michele Tafoya. Oh my gosh - she is or was pro-choice. Now my preference is that she is not, but she still has the best chance of winning that open senate seat. However, there are MNGOP types who will SIT THIS ELECTION OUT, rather than vote for Michele. By the way, as the old expression goes, you can't govern if you don't win. The trifecta rule of the Democrats in 2023 gave us the immoral abortion law which is now law in MN. You know - the same type of law that MA just passed. It is a satanic law, and we had no Republicans who could stop it. Again, if you don't win, you can't govern.

Here is what the DFL does that the MNGOP does not do. Once the dust settles and the primary is over, they gather around the winner. It really does not matter to them how corrupt or imperfect their candidates are. They vote lock, stock and barrel for their candidates.
