2. Am absolutely crazy for Franken!

He is on fire -- and has the FACTS. His inner Wellstone is coming on strong, and I love it.

He now has some "gravitas" after toning down his previous career as a comedic actor.

He was the reason I got satellite radio so many years ago, when I lived in a red state desert , starved for sanity with an edge during the Bush Devastation. His show on that now defunct Air America got me through. The best of that station, including Randy Rhodes and the others.

He is so damn smart and thoughtful.

He is still too parsimonious with appearances on MSM, but hope that is strategic before launching for the Big Gig.

Would love a Franken/Klobuchar ticket - but from the same state, darn it.
