Presidential candidate Pat Buchanan paid his first visit to the home state of Jesse Ventura today, since announcing his switch to Ventura's Reform Party. Buchanan, who left the Republican Party on Monday, continues to be diplomatic toward the Governor, saying he respects Ventura's importance in the party. Still, Buchanan was unable to get a personal meeting with Ventura during this visit to Minnesota -- and his presence here has highlighted a growing rift inside the state Reform Party.
