I am assuming Obama will be elected. And, I’m not determining anything for Coleman if he’s elected. If Obama is elected, and Democrats have majorities in both houses, there won’t be much the Republicans can do. Correct me if I’m wrong in my thinking.

Unless, of course, Coleman realizes this truth, and becomes a Democrat.

What a sorry excuse for a human.

Remind me about your objections to Franken’s language, ya (cheney)in’ hypocrite.

We’ll see about that. you can always pledge to run to Canada and then not do it if things don’t turn out for you.

“Coleman can then be a more senior senator who works on bringing money into Minnesota.”

Does Coleman know that you’ve determined what he can and can’t do once re-elected?

Typical of a selfish Dem to demand elected officals bring home loads of pork. Despicable.

I also agree that Franken does not help the divisiveness. He’s like pouring gasoline on a fire. (not the direction we should be going).

Coleman’s NOT all that great either. What has he done for Minnesota? How has he tried to do things differently than usual? Answer: he hasn’t, not at all.

However, Franken is worse. And, when Obama is elected, Coleman and the Republicans won’t matter. We will have full majorities with no vetoes to override. Coleman can then be a more senior senator who works on bringing money into Minnesota.

can’t you just see the ads after primary day with snippets of franken doing some of his so-called humor being worked into a political ad? and the franken folks will probably try to pull an obama and say that his prior work record should not be a factor in the election.

Al Franken is a one of a kind piece of shit. He should have stayed in New York.

Senator shouldn’t be a promotion from failed radio show host any more than TSA agent should be a promotion from Cini-bon register operator.”

While I agree with yout statement, It’s very funny to hear you talk about “solving division.”

Oh, he’s sit on the committee all right. He’d sit on it and fart on it, and punch it… etc.

Al Franken is a major fucking asshole. Everyone knows it. Anyone interested in solving division in Washington will be uninterested in sending that hate mongering piece of shit to Washington.

Senator shouldn’t be a promotion from failed radio show host any more than TSA agent should be a promotion from Cini-bon register operator.

Seems to me, this would be a much bigger problem if he were in the minority and disliked by the committee chair.

But lets not confuse ourselves here. Sen. Hutchinson is coming back next spring as the ranking MINORITY PARTY member on this committee.

And the MN DFL Veterans Caucus has endorsed Al.

I guess what I am saying is, **YAWN**

A 15+ year career of fomenting hate and violence against those with whom he disagrees is a dark mark against Al Franken.

His history of hate, insults and degrading language against others will make it impossible for him to advance any agenda anywhere, much less in Washington.

Anyone interested in putting recent division behind us should be uninterested in voting for Al Franken, who has made millions creating and expanding that division.
