"Curb Your Enthusiasm" star Larry David said he couldn't refuse Franken.

"Al is a friend of mine, so more than anything, when friends ask me to do things, I have a hard time saying no to people. If he asked me to drive him to the airport, I'd do that too," David said in an interview Friday."

I despise Larry David's and his wife's political slants, but I am a huge Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm fan. Life goes on.

Disgusting that the liberal media runs non-stories like this about Leftists. Diana Irey's challenge to "Pruneface" Murtha in Pennsylvania is much more interesting but she can't get the time of day.

Well I guess Franken is qualified for the Senate - he was a failure in the private sector.

A third party run by Mr. Franken would be great.

If Franken runs for the senate that will be the funniest thing he has done since Saturday Night Live.

Please run, Al! That will show the whole country the intelligence level of the average Dem. I hope they telecast the debates between Al and Norm Coleman to the nation. I can't wait!!!

"The list of contributors to comedian Al Franken's political action committee reads like a celebrity who's who of blithering blathering babbling left-wing bozos."

There, I corrected it!!

Well....if Al runs...and wins...then Air America loses its owner draw card to the network. If I were the Democrats...I'd be begging Al to stay and keep the network afloat. But then...the scenario of having a comedian (even a Democratic comedian)...appeals to me. I'd like to see McCain and Franken in a senate exchange...in fact, I'd pay $10 just to watch such a heated debate between the two.

Barbara Streisand seems intent on throwing her money away. At this rate, she'll be a bag lady by 2008.
