Another candidate for governor

Sue Jeffers, owner of Stub & Herbs bar on the University of Minnesota campus and vehement opponent of smoking bans is running for governor. Believing that the Republicans have sold out, she is running as a Libertarian.

So far, she seems to be a single-issue candidate, and it's an issue that most people don't really agree with. So despite what the treasurer of the Libertarian Party says, she probably isn't going to win. Maybe she can join forces with Jonathon Sharkey and form a Vampire-Libertarian unity ticket.

If you're a vampire, don't you kinda have to be a libertarian? You have to believe in a lot of personal freedoms before you get down to "free to drink blood".

On the other hand, he wants to impale drug users, not very libertarian.

Hardly a single issue candidate. I haven't even heard Sue Jeffers mention smoking bans in her speeches, or literature. Taxes, roads, eminent domain and schools appear to be her main focus.
