I was unaware of who he was before this campaign started, but I have enjoyed getting to know Jones a little bit over the last couple of months. He seems like a genuinely decent man running for the right reasons. I am happy to have supported him, including a small donation to his campaign. Also a big thank you to all those who have worked hard for Jones on the ground in Alabama.

Good luck, Doug!

This is part of a story written about how he will fill Franken's seat. My question is, if the shoe was on the other foot, would a GOP governor offer the Dems the same golden opportunity? Fat chance. This is why we are doormats.


"On Wednesday night, high-ranking Minnesota Democratic sources said the governor was likely to appoint Lt. Gov. Tina Smith, someone who would not run for the seat permanently. That would give both parties equal time to mount campaigns for the historic election next November in which both Senate seats would be on the line."

On CNN shitting on and parsing all of Al's words. She is such a fucking rain cloud of misery.

Oh wait, there won't be any.

Should Franken resign Steve Kornacki on MSNBC reports he will appoint a caretaker who will agree not to run in the November 2018 special election for the remaining 2 years of Franken’s term.

My question: why?

That is all.

Nah, I don't believe that shit either.

Nothing against RFK at all but the endless shillling and attempts to run every current event through the RFK filter is tiring.

Yes I know I shouldn’t be watching Tweety.

If it looks bad for Dems he will be animated with the customary frenetic arm gyrations. If it’s good he will be more subdued, maybe crestfallen.
