Wednesday on the RCP podcast, the panel discussed a new Emerson poll of 1,000 likely Minnesota voters showing Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar solidly leading in the governor’s race (+14 in the RCP average). “Minnesota is a very Democratic state,” Carl Cannon said. “The generic Democrat wins against the generic Republicans — and Amy Klobuchar is more than the generic candidate.” “She’s got charisma, she speaks well, and makes her case. She’s not a left-wing nut, but she’s got all the liberal credentials you need. She ran for president, and in a normal year, she would have been the obvious vice presidential choice of Joe Biden,” he said. “So, yeah, they’re not going to be able to beat her.”
