Rybak supporter goes country

Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak may be a city-slicker but a supporter thinks he's country enough to be featured in the 1962 country music hit, "I've been everywhere."

The song and Web video, from a volunteer and what the video describes as "unknown phenom Web Danstar," includes a pitch for Rybak's gubernatorial campaign along with a tongue-twisting list of Minnesota place names.

Lyric samples: "If you want change from a governor, with R.T. you can ride. Join the Rybak bandwagon and we'll kick GOP hide...I've been everywhere man. And nothing will compare, man, to R.T. in the governor's chair man."

Here's the video:

Does the tune make you dance or is it a dud?

Update:

The song has made the rounds in Minnesota political circles before. Republican Allen Quist used it in his 1998 campaign for governor, with a video showing him and running mate Dan Williams driving around the state and apparently used it in his 1994 campaign as well.

Update II:

Have other examples of the song being used in Minnesota politics? Note it in the comments.
