If I lived in Minnesota I would actually vote. If for nothing else for this quote alone:
"I'm not a politician, I'm a statesman," he told Wineheads. "I do one term, and then I go back to the private sector. If I get back into the fray again this year, it's only because I've been gone five years back to the private sector. That's what I did when I was mayor. That's a statesman. That's not a career politician."
We need more people representing all of us with this attitude. Politics is a service. Not a career.

Just for the record, I saw Missouri State Senator Jeff Smith at CBGB on Wednesday night. Really.
He even gave me a business card.
