If there’s one candidate who deserves to be elected this year, it’s Al Franken. Over the last decade, no Democrat has done more for the cause. His literary efforts to inject some steel into the flaccid spines of our leaders in Washington may have proven insufficient, but fans of his Air America show will tell you that he’s exactly what the Senate needs right now. He’s the Democratic Anti-Obama. He knows why he’s running for public office, and it's not because he wants to "change the tone" or "transcend politics." (Hard to believe, but he really doesn't think this election is all about his own wonderfulness.)
When Harry Reid and his hand-picked President come to Senator Franken and tell him what watered-down piece of legislation he needs to support, he’s going to do the right thing--and he’d better. We’ve got enough Claire McCaskills.
