n. Illinois | here is another person's take on the MN mess, Makes sense to a simple person like me.
The rumor —that popular four-term Senator Amy Klobuchar might fly in to save the day like Glinda the Good Witch— was sourced to two anonymous people “briefed on conversations.” Briefed on. Meaning: they didn’t hear the conversations. Lawyers call that double hearsay. The paper then added that Klobuchar “did not respond” to requests for comment. I’m calling BS.
Klobuchar, 65, currently infests a safe, low-effort Senate seat not up again until 2029. She could ride it until she’s 106. Why would she abandon the safe 6-year Senatorial term for a four-year, accountability-heavy, scandal-soaked governorship that Walz just turned into a furious Superfund site? That would be like trading the Wizard’s suite in the Emerald City for the old farmhouse that just crushed the witch— to help “stabilize” it. Not to mention that, historically, Democrats elevate senators to the presidency, not governors. (Curiously, the Times skipped all that analysis.) | |
