Should post this too:

Al Franken is commander-in-chief on 'Jeopardy'

Al Franken might be getting used to landslide victories. Two years after easily retaining his U.S. Senate seat,m the Minnesota Democrat tested his brain power on a celebrity edition of “Jeopardy” that aired Thursday afternoon.

It was no contest. From nearly the get-go, Franken had the edge over his competitors, political strategist Ana Navarro and ABC’s Sunny Hostin, thanks to his knowledge on everything from which states have legalized marijuana to the theme song from “The Flintstones.”

In the end, Franken racked up more than $20,000, nearly double the amount earned by runner-up Navarro.

Producers bolstered his total by pledging $50,000 to the charity of his choice, the USO.
