You can get there from here!

Put a pot of coffee on Manitoba, company may be coming!!!

Folks in border areas across the nation may want to make a Costco/Superstore run, stocking up on the Folgers, Maxwell House or for the connoisseurs, some Timmies. Better yet if you wish to make your soon to arrive guests more comfortable, maybe even grab some Starbucks.

With Republicans in full navel gazing mode after Tuesday's electoral defeat for the Presidency, some are giving thought to relocation to above the 49th.

There may not have been a path to the Presidency on Tuesday after all for the GOP, but for the disappointed, there is a path to Canada.

To help with the traffic flow, Jeff Brucculeri, a Tulsa television weatherman at Fox 23 provided this helpful travel guide for how to get there.

You take your Highway 75 NORTHBOUND, through Kansas, watch for 29 at Omaha all the way through the Dakotas and across the border into Winn-ih-peg, though Jeff may have led travellers astray as they seek out the Lord Selkin Highway once they have crossed the line...

We're not sure that Republicans have perhaps researched this whole northern migration out completely.

Canada has national health care, relatively high taxes by American standards. We're not particularly concerned about gay marriage and of course we're not quite as fond of weaponry, as some of the Republican base might appreciate.

We do however, have some familiar things, a baseball and basketball team on the TV (though they are from Toronto and quickly our new guests will learn that's not always a good thing) and we like football, though Republicans will no doubt be a little confused why teams keep kicking on third down.

Regardless, we're sure the Conservative Party might welcome some new recruits for our electoral cycle, though as to the right of the political spectrum as Stephen Harper may be, in Tea Party eyes, he may still seem a little to LEFT leaning for their liking...
