(988 posts)if everybody is so gung ho on Franken staying an the democratic party now sucks...how would Franken stay in and not be considered a sexual harasser. HOW?
There does not seem to be any effort to discredit these women working for the GOP. Nobody is wanting to go there. If they are not exposed as fake or doing something political or wrong, then the accusations stand. If you cry about due process for franken then there would also need to be due process for roy moore rigth?
Franken should have exposed these women in such a way to frame them as co conspirators with Hannity or Fox News. That didnt happen.
I think the democratic party did the right thing. The only way to take the high road and make sure women know the democrats will even lose one of their own to advance this important womens issue.
Its clear the democrats have taken a step toward aligning more with women and their rights.
