Tammy Baldwin wants Franken to resign

I have called her office and sent her an email saying she is wrong to ask for his resignation. Two women used their names in their complaints and both were not very substantial and would lose in court with their flimsy complaints. The rest of the complaints were anonymous and must be disregarded and these women should be investigated and possibly be charged with slander.

Please let Baldwin know how you feel about her efforts to rid the Senate of the best Democratic Senator. And she wants to do this without any solid proof of wrong doing.

twitter to make their judgement. Most comments were favorable for Senator Franken. Will they back down or will they continue to give the dangerous right wing more and more ammunition.

I am done with the Democrats, Schumer and Pelosi and the rest have been bought off and turning on those who try to right all the wrongs going on. Duckworth just wants to get her name out there and convince everyone of her "high" morals. Why haven't I heard all these Democrats screaming about Roy Moore or the the bastard living in the white house?

Everyone will get a High Road participation trophy. The rest of us will get tax hikes and cuts to health care and social security, along with the destruction of unions and the repeal of the minimum wage.

This will make her fundraising more difficult. I just unsubscribed.

They wanted to know if I would attend a fund raiser for her as I have done in the past. It broke my heart to tell the caller I no longer supported her because of the hit job she did on Senator Franken.

I supported Tammy in the past and liked her very much. However, she did not give Franken a chance to clear his name by going through an ethics investigation. I am now nauseated by having to remove my support from someone I liked so much.
