Long article. Worth the read. Loosing Franken would be a real plus.

He has taken the local issues/constituent service route. More like a Rep than a Senator, but it might work.
To: upchuck
It would be nice to see Franken go.

He did it backwards though. It’s usually senator-turned-comedian for most of them!

Loosing Franken would be a real plus. Agreed. But Franken isn't going to lose.
To: upchuck
He knows the fix is in, the vote fraud is in place, and there are more than enough bogus votes to get him re-elected.

He “won” with 41.99% of the vote last time. If Minnesotans have an ounce of sense left (that’s arguable) Franken is beatable.

Where’s the RNC money for McFadden? This could be an easy pickup. Franken is a moron and should be tied to BO every chance they get.

Franken was way out in front of McFadden with his ad campaign. Smart, serious, got some republican voters to say nice things about him. Solid ads. McFadden finally shows up with painfully bad humor in his ads that make me flip channels. It’s like it’s a joke to him. I am so embarrassed for him every time one of his ads comes on.
People are saying it’s going to be really close. I’m thinking at least 15 points.
Hope I’m wrong.

Yea, but Al Franken VS Investment banker sounds like a choice between two brands of douchebags.
The R might be a saint, but running an investment banker sounds like the R’s want to throw that one...
