At the 2006 MN DFL State Convention in Rochester…
There have been delays in ‘freezing’ the floor for each new round of balloting because there are so many female delegates standing in line for a restroom, they’re having trouble getting back in time for the vote.
In response, I’m pleased to announce that Principal Skinner, actually I don’t know what his name is, but I mean the guy who’s running these proceedings; he apparently wields some serious clout: he has just proclaimed that all of the men’s restrooms on the upper level of the Civic Center shall henceforth be women’s restrooms.
Now that’s real power.

RIP Rick Nelson. Sad news tonight for the Minnesota DFL and for all of Minnesota. Rick Nelson will be much missed.
Two more miracles like that and he’ll be viable for saint-hood!
Yeah. Now if only we knew who he is!
“Principal Skinner” is in fact Rick Nelson, the Associate Chair of the 3rd Congressional District DFL.
