I know it's a pipe dream, but I am still pissed about the way he was booted out.

It was devastating and effective in a way, only a very intelligent, probing, informed, yet non-lawyer can make.
I am not in Minnesota, but he is badly needed. Klobuchar is great. I'm less enamored with Al's replacement.

He won't be primarying Klobuchar or Smith, and he won't be moving to another State to run there.

What was done to him in my book is sooooo not forgettable.

And Al can finish out her term. A win win.

He could move to California and be appointed to Kamalas seat when she and Joe win. Or, better yet, maybe he could take Diane Feinsteins place. I think its time she resigned. 😃
