I think they both have mental disorders and just spout talking points like any politician. The neoconservatives and social conservatives have little in common with the Republican party of the past. For evidence look at NH. Many Republicans there, but very few neoconservatives or social conservatives.
Neoconservative, Social Conservative, Libertarian Conservative, Old School Good Ole Boy New England Conservative, I don't care. As long as it ain't a liberal.

How about Socialists? Communists? Are you OK with them?
There's really nothing wrong with the science behind communism and socialism, in fact Democratic states are historically the most unsuccessful. (USA is a baby in terms of it's lifespan, as well as France since the French Revolu)
Really, an nearly impossible choice. MSP is more appealing than Milwaukee ( but not by much), but WI has the great city of Madison, and is much closer to Chicago for weekend trips, so ....
Both are truly great states; would not mind living in either one.
One of the main appeals to me is: I'm bored (happens to you no matter what city you live in, even NYC) and where can I go from here to enjoy a different environment without flying there?
76 miles from Milwaukee to Chicago. It' an easy drive from Madison, too.
Isolated Minneapolis? 7-8 hours to Chicago? 9-10 hours to Winnipeg?
That alone lessens the appeal of Minneapolis. But then, again, you have the jewel of Minnesota 140 miles away on Lake Superior.
And why advertise all those lakes? Inland lakes, to me, spell annoying insects.
Also, many jokes center around Wisconsin's drinking heritage. Jokingly, MNs like to make fun at WIs as they are drunks. As liquor stores in WI are open later and on Sundays, the Brewers, and the law that lets minors drink in establishments if their parents are present.
If liberal? Minnesota weren't so hypocritical, and made it easier to open up neighborhood bars, there'd be more drunks in Minnesota and it would be a more fun state to visit.
What's the tally? Number of bars in Minnesota vs. Wisconsin? Anyone know?
But let's a Wisconsite answer this. A Minnesotan discovering the results of such a search might be too embarrassed to reveal the statistics correctly.
A Minnesotan might include A & W's in the tally.
scuzzy? Ha, have you ever been to Superior, WI? LOL
Scuzzy, but fun. Love those generic bars in Superior, it's worth staying there just to pub crawl at night and not worry about getting a DUI. Being a long-time lover of Tijuana (check my user name!) I may be going too far and calling it the Tijuana of the North.
I say, stay overnight at that old landmark hotel in downtown Superior, pub crawl at night, nurse your hangover in Duluth the next day and do some sightseeing, take in Minnesota Point, return to Superior at night and have a blast!

Reason: add words
Lake Calhoun is notable however in that there are practically no similar lakes smack dab in the center of a major city anywhere else in the US.
The two best lakes in the metor area I'd say are Minnetonka and White Bear - those two are unbelievable and if there are any rich people you here of living in the Twin Cities suburbs, chances are they are on one of those two lakes.
No surprise to any visitor driving around Lake Calhoun or Lake of the Nimby's, where the rich, anti-development, anti-density, not-in-my-backyard residents reside.
Has a strong smell of Southern California: Santa Monica/Malibu/Orange County.
No high rises, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez! Don't spoil my precious, selfish view! It's mine, mine, mine!
