afleitch vs. jmfcst

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

A new rivalry brewing. Of course for this we have to assume afleitch is constitutionally eligible.

I vote afleitch/afleitch.

I don't think being gay would hurt afleitch, since the people who wouldn't vote for him because of that are almost all Republicans anyway. He'd win almost all moderate and socially liberal Republicans (obviously) and would still do well in Democrat-voting populist areas because (and this is something most people don't get) even though many populist areas (especially around here in the Midwest) are socially conservative, they are not fundamentalist and do not appreciate fundamentalist nutters telling them what to do. jmfcst would go over as well in Northeast Minnesota (a mostly populist area) as he would in downtown Minneapolis.
