1. Oh HELL yes!

2. I saw Al Franken when his National Tour Tour came to my area in November

To a sold out crowd, with only a microphone, a stool and three glasses of water - he spoke for over two hours and received a standing ovation. And yes, he did mention Ted Cruz...

6. Al Franken would win if he ran again

yup

[Rhiannon12866]

7. Oh, I think so, too!

The sold out crowd at a very large venue in Albany, New York, couldn't have been more enthusiastic! And he was both informative, mostly talked politics, and was still very funny! The only thing is that I think he's returned to living in New York. But I imagine he could be elected most anywhere from what I saw. How about Texas?

8. well, Texas is a strange kind of red state hell

punctuated by large blue areas of sanity

and right now, Abbott is on many shit lists; yes INDEED

[Rhiannon12866]

9. Well, Beto is catching up, the latest poll had him only a few points behind!

[Skittles]

10. I admire Beto, and I contribute to his campaign

[Rhiannon12866]

11. Kudos! I support him as well, and have often posted his campaign videos here

Not that I need to convince anyone on DU, but they're encouraging!

4. I start chuckling before Al even speaks, lol.

[Rhiannon12866]

5. Same here!

He's smart - and very funny on any subject...
