You think this is a possible win but PA isn't? MN is the ultimate definition of a "stubborn" state for the GOP so you can't use that argument.
Are you forgetting the teaser known as NJ?
Except we won NJ since 1972. We haven't won MN since then.
And you can't have us now. This is because a small, but consistent portion of Minnesota voters get to the polls fully intending to vote for the Republican and then they get into the booth and that little voice in the back of their mind starts eroding their GOP confidence.
"Ya sure wouldn't wanna be voted for them Republicans there, now wouldja?" the voice says
"they don't do nuthin' for the little guys like you and me", it says.
It goes on "That Jell-O salad that Yvette Hoaglund made was pretty darned tasty, now wasn't it?"
At this point, the voter snaps
"OH GOSH DARN IT... I JUST CAN'T HELP MYSELF" as they hastily fill in the DFL bubble.
