The Dem prez nom in '16 is going to be someone who actually wants to attempt to run the country while the GOP controls everything (for the first two years at least).
This is a person who is either insane, a masochist or a naive dreamer. Or a woman.

the secret is if you decrimalize everything crime goes down and taxes go up, and you can trick private citizens into funding emergency services for themselves.

Minnesota was helped significantly by the fact that Al Franken's Republican opponent turned out to be a guy who owns an arm of an investment firm that moved to Bermuda to avoid taxes, and he also shut down a mill in Montana even though it was making money and over 400 people lost jobs in the process.
