4. Cant' wait for Franken to start cracking jokes and knocking heads in the Senate.
Edited on Mon Jan-26-09 05:09 AM by Stevepol
Mitch McConnell et al. are going to have conniption fits. They won't be able to think straight.

Now if he'll only do something about our election system so the guy who gets the most votes in any election can win, he will be a perfect Senator. Hope he gets it now, the reason for audits and a paper trail. It doesn't guarantee a fair election but if the system is like it is in MN, it's pretty hard for the wrong guy to take charge and start a new war and destroy the whole world.

Hip Hip Hooray!

5. That is GREAT, Thx!
He says he lost his sense of humor but it ain't true. Al still has the same chops as when we started getting inspired by him in 2003 on Air America and learning about Rush and "Lying Liars".

8. The thing about Franken is...
Edited on Mon Jan-26-09 12:10 PM by AlbertCat
...even in his most outrageous humor like Stewart Smally...there is a huge helping of common sense and keen observation...and believing in that observation as opposed to ignoring what is plainly in front of him. The opposite of an ideologue. He'll be a great Senator I think (may take a year or so....y'know trying to elbow your way into that club...sheesh!)because he represents our group that does NOT make up their own reality!
