Joe Barton will resign.Then the Republicans will put media pressure on Al Franken to do the same, even though we are not talking about the same thing.

Franken's shenanigans merit apologies and nothing else, which he has done but I do not have faith that there won't be another allegation against another Democrat just because that's where it seems we are going. Repubs will have more, but I just have a feeling we will too.
