Minnesota.......MINNESOTA!!!!!!!

When president Obama announced his "fix" last week for people who actually believed him when he told us that we all could keep our policies if we liked them, there was a quick response from the Commissioner of Insurance of Washington state.  That Democrat said that Washington would have no part of the plan.  That was certainly a bad omen for Obama, but yesterday in Minnesota, there was an event that really is the kiss of death for the "fix".  Governor Mark Dayton of Minnesota announced that the "fix" was unworkable and would not be allowed in that state.  In order to understand just how bad this development is for Obama, you have to know that governor Dayton is a highly partisan and very liberal Democrat.  He is just the sort of official who normally would be most likely to do what Obama wants.  Instead, Dayton announced the death of the fix in Minnesota and gave as the reason that the purported "fix" could not work.  So we have the spectacle of a liberal Democrat basically calling out Obama for putting forth a phony plan that could never work.

You may also want to know also that there is an election for governor in Minnesota in less than a year from now.
