Wine and Cheese: Ventura to Announce Tonight?
EmailThe Midwest Wine Connection, which was where former Gov. Jesse Ventura, Ind-Minn., in an interview sparked conversation that he might challenge Sen. Norm Coleman, R-Minn., and Al Franken for the US Senate this year, reports that: "Former Governor Jesse Ventura has made a final decision on whether to run for U.S. Senate, The Midwest Wine Connection confirmed this afternoon with a source close to Ventura. There is a better than strong chance, according to the source, that Ventura will announce his intention to run for the U.S. Senate during an appearance tonight on CNN’s ‘Larry King Live.’"

A comedian, a wrestler and a republican walk into an election. Sounds like a joke doesn’t it?

Well, if Jesse Ventura does run and WIN, that would be great for MN and the US. However, if he runs and does not win, there’s likely a slot for the fiscal conservative, social liberal in an Obama cabinet. Likely with an office next door to Arnold Schwartzenegger’s. I can see Obama easily working with both of them.
