It looks Like Jessie the Bod has [endorsed](http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/#ventura) John Kerry. (Link requires subscription or short commercial)

As a Minnesotan, I’m stunned that he kept it short and to the point too!

Now. If he could only beat up my mayor.

He can practice on mine. It should be pretty easy: [Maplewood City Council](http://www.ci.maplewood.mn.us/index.asp?Type=B_BASIC&SEC=%7BE3469DC0-711F-4E1E-BA97-9F58834A3A4E%7D)  
Mayor Bob’s the one in the middle. With the tie… sideways. In his official picture.

On Jesse, though… I am glad that he did the right thing. I didn’t vote for him, but he made me happy more often than he made me mad, which is something at any rate.

I’m glad he’s endorsing Kerry. I admire him for his independent streak, but I’m glad to see that he’s able to see the importance of this election.

I also think he has the best facial hair of any political figure since Lincoln. 😃
