Too bad right wing trolls smeared him. Never forget.

[ChubbyStar]

1. Never EVER!

[marble falls]

2. When is Al Franken going to run again?

[Skittles]

8. he should

I know he has a lot of support

[Kingofalldems]

9. I hope soon.

[RicROC]

15. for VP

I know it's a dream, and not realistic, but HEY, he would make a great VP

[marble falls]

24. He would definately make a great VP.

[rzemanfl]

3. That wasn't a smear, it was ratf***ing-right out of their playbook. n/t

[ChubbyStar]

4. Atwater, Rove, Roger Stone

Everyday they wrote the book.

[rzemanfl]

5. Yep. n/t

[Cetacea]

13. +1000

[BlancheSplanchnik]

28. Well said. Yep, they're all scum.

[LW1977]

6. Al Franken was D-MN, not D-NY

Maybe little nit-pickey, but had to e said.

[Dem4Life1102]

11. Why does that matter?

[shenmue]

12. Because he's not from there

[SMC22307]

31. Because DU isn't Trumpland... accuracy matters. (n/t)

[Dem4Life1102]

35. ...

[Cuthbert Allgood]

17. Exactly what I thought.

SKOL! I hope we crush the Packers this weekend.

[enough]

7. The healing power of the belly-laugh! NT

[uponit7771]

10. K&R

[LakeArenal]

14. I won't forget the Democrats that took the RW bait

No due process.

[OnDoutside]

18. Well said.

[Dem4Life1102]

20. Franken was never charged with a crime

or even sued in civil court. So due process doesn’t apply.

[LakeArenal]

21. Umm. That's not how I remember.

I remember Franken requesting a ethics investigation but was shown the door.

But you can believe what you want.

[Dem4Life1102]

22. An ethics committee investigation is only

a finding if Congressional ethics rules were violated. It doesn’t determine guilt or innocence. That is not a matter of belief, it’s reality.

[LakeArenal]

25. I bow to your knowledge. But nonetheless

Franken was screwed out of his job.

Was not given a chance.

I won’t forget how I think it went down. I’m not alone in that either.

[dhol82]

27. Yup.

[Dem4Life1102]

32. Not saying he wasn't

just making the point that “due process” doesn’t apply.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

34. Definitely

[TidalWave46]

16. Brilliant. NT

[SCantiGOP]

23. Let's work toward

Making sure he is a member of the next Administration.

[warmfeet]

26. I will never forget.

I have spoken to him a few times.

We need many more like him.

[trof]

29. Franken still has it. In spades. He should have a politico-comedy special on MSNBC

Or SNL?

[zobert]

30. Perfect. I miss Al Franken. His resignation was a great loss.

[NBachers]

33. Biden - Franken - What a campaigning and in-office team that would be.

"Al, would you consider being my running mate?"

and he wouldn't have to poach anyone out of the Senate or House of Representatives, either.
