Highlight:

I met Kirsten Gillibrand today in a restaurant! [View all] Polybius Nov 2019 OP

I know she's persona non grata to many, but I like her. Glad you are known to good Dems. Hoyt Nov 2019 #1

You're not alone. I like her as well. Bleacher Creature Nov 2019 #11

I would ask her...how proud is she to have helped to derail Al Franken to resign? OAITW r.2.0 Nov 2019 #2

I love Al but he stepped on his own you know what redstateblues Nov 2019 #3

We disagree....we killed a great field general against the Opposition OAITW r.2.0 Nov 2019 #4

Anthony Weiner was also a great field general, until Blue_true Nov 2019 #12

Nowhere near the same. Bluepinky Nov 2019 #15

Those other women who accused him of impropriety BlancheSplanchnik Nov 2019 #45

We need people in office that have unassailable character. Blue_true Nov 2019 #5

I agree. And I agree Franken brought it on himself and was the one to walk away. Jewls2 Nov 2019 #8

Al brought nothing on himself. Republican sleazebags brought it on him and got lucky. DFW Nov 2019 #13

So you won't support Warren, Harris, Booker or Sanders? Dem4Life1102 Nov 2019 #19

Awhat a crude untruthful thing to say about Senator Franken. trueblue2007 Nov 2019 #17

You're wrong about Franken, & you forgot the sarcasm thingy regarding Gillibrand's sole culpability Hekate Nov 2019 #21

I don't go for absolute purity. BTW, Al Franken is nothing like Anthony Weiner... Hekate Nov 2019 #20

Unwanted touching is not consensual JonLP24 Nov 2019 #22

I think Al was railroaded. Case in point: the woman castmember who released that photo... Hekate Nov 2019 #24

I know who Leeann Tweeden is and I have known who she is for years JonLP24 Nov 2019 #25

Thank you for your input. But I would be easier in my mind if the Senate... Hekate Nov 2019 #28
