Let the ethics committee investigate and let the voters of MN decide Sen. Franken's fate.

[Yavin4]

We have a process for investigating congressmen. Let that process work. Let the women who have accused Franken to come forward and present their argument with whatever corroborating evidence they have. Let the committee make its decision and let the voters of MN decide his fate.

Demanding that Franken resign puts every progressive Democrat in peril. All that it would take to get one to resign would be an anonymous charge that was bought and paid for by the Koch-Mercer-Murdoch-Fox News-Breitbart right wing industrial complex.

Also, the voters elected Franken to fight for them and their needs, something that he has done brilliantly. Calling for his resignation is a slap in the face to those voters.

1. I agree. Every human being is flawed and we need to put his flaws, whatever they are,

into the context of his whole record.

And then the people of Minnesota can decide.

3. I am one of those Minnesota voters

and on account of all of this bullshit I will work especially hard for Al's re-election.

[Polly Hennessey]

4. Agree.

Have a feeling it will turn out Ok for Al. I hope , hope, hope. He is a decent guy and we need him.

[question everything]

5. But not considering the possibility that he may choose not to run for re-election

also removes the Minnesota voters from the equation.

It will be up to them to, first, have someone primary challenges him - or not - and then choose their candidate.
