Bizarre.

I do not think Franken should resign for this.

He serves conservatives better in his seat than we are likely to get as a replacement that will be harder to beat!

I think Ellison would be easier to beat than Franken.

Why should he resign? The gig is up, sure, but he’s got the rest of this term to ride things out. Senators have the ability to take a longer view of things, unlike Representative Conyers.

I believe I saw something to the effect that an organized group of Democrats with Muslim members wants him to resign so that the Muslim (Ellison?) who wanted to lead the Democratic National Comm. could take his place. Now that would be an big improvement. /sarc.

If he and other Dems are forced out by public pressure, it will be that much easier for Dems to say that Judge Moore should go if he gets elected. Also, who knows what nasty surprises are about to be sprung on GOP members?
