Little birds are saying it will be Lt Governor Tina Smith.
Franken’s staff tweets “Senator Franken is talking with his family at this time and plans to make an announcement in D.C. tomorrow. Any reports of a final decision are inaccurate.”
Dems realized too late they were kneecapping their little pajama boy in Alabama with their hypocrisy and brought out the long knives for Conyers and Franken.
We need a top tier candidate to run. Pawlenty? We can’t let this opportunity pass.
I saw that mentioned just a little while ago on Gunzie’s feed. It’s a bit of a risk given that Smith has never run an independent campaign (unlike the other women officeholders in MN).
I’m not a fan of Pawlenty’s, but he’d be a credible candidate in a 2018 special.
