AKlo’s approach has always been to pick the safest political position on every issue, and stay there as if welded down. It’s made her electorally invulnerable in Minnesota, and has absolutely nothing to do with being a leader for positive change. But, you know, that’s just my take, and I suppose her gaudy approval ratings and effortless election blowouts speak for themselves.
An interesting question, for me at least, is to what extent Minnesota’s corporate media may or may not display the same kind of groveling boosterism here that it did during Tim Pawlenty’s pitiful presidential “run” (and his attempted 2018 comeback). Though as you may have guessed from the above I’m not her biggest political fan, Amy Klobuchar is certainly a far better candidate, for anything, and a far better person, than TBag. But, she’s a Democrat, and given that corporate media’s base audience is old Republicans, and that it’s owned by Republicans, and that the GOP in Minnesota is in a desperate place looking forward, coverage will probably be at least a little less starry-eyed.
