Al Franken on Letterman & Obama on Nightline tonight.

Just in case you were interested.

On edit:

Franken just said he believes he'll be the nominee. He seemed pretty confident.

I didn't catch the name but he said someone had dropped out of the race.

1. And Leno has Matalin and Carville. Yuck!

[Breeze54]

3. I haven't seen them yet...some guy with glasses is on right now

and he's pretending to be a comedian. He isn't one, that's for sure. :puke:

2. he's trying to lock in the clown vote

5. i love Al, "Lies and the lying liars who tell them" is just about one of my favorite

political books. I think i'm the only person in Sacramento county that wears and "Al Franken doe senate" shirt, you know just in case i run into an undecided Minnesota voter.:D

6. I laughed all the way through that book!!

:P It was to damn funny! My sister read it and then gave me her copy. What a riot!

7. when i first signed up here i almost picked "Supply side jesus" as a screen name.

in honor of Al.

8. Mike Ciresi dropped out, Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer continues to gain on Franken

but, in my opinion won't catch him. JNP is VERY progressive, but a virtual unknown outside of the 'Cities and college campuses.

Ciresi was the attorney in the tobacco cases and used much of his personal fortune to run the race. He deserves credit for dropping out and not going dirty to try to beat up Franken before the GE. Coleman MUST be defeated and Wellstone's seat must be reclaimed.

11. JNP IS gaining on Al.......hope he catches and passes him....

I was a Franken supporter but after going to my Winona Co convention, I'm a proud JNP supporter now. :patriot: :patriot: :patriot:

12. Labor-Healthcare-Franken

was my caucus at the Winona County convention. What group did you caucus with? Glad another DUer was there! :hi:

[a kennedy]

13. Nelson-Pallmeyer A-Z , and I might add it was the largest delegation

at the convention. :) :patriot: happy to hear you were there too.

10. Franken thought about running in 2006, but I think he wanted to "get" Coleman

in honor of Paul Wellstone. Go Al!
