Just one day removed from the House, Barney Frank says he wants to get back to Washington.

Frank, speaking today on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” said he told Gov. Deval Patrick he wants to be interim senator when Sen. John Kerry is named secretary of state.

“A month ago, or a few weeks ago, I said I wasn’t interested,” Frank said, according to a transcript of his appearance on Politico.com. “It was kind of like you’re about to graduate, and they said: ‘You gotta go to summer school.’ But (the fiscal cliff deal) now means that February, March and April are going to be among the most important months in American financial history.”

Frank added: “I’ve told the governor I would now like, frankly, to do that (serve as interim senator).”

The jokes just write themselves. I’m sure Barney would love to fill Kerry’s seat.

But beloved by 80 percent of the MA mass electorate.

Exchanging the ‘human toothache’ (Kerry) for the ‘human ass-ache’ (Frank) Yea, it makes one long for the days of Governor Foster Furcolo; I've just heard the name, don't recall anything about him except for a catchy name. People in MA are nearly always WRONG! Sorry, John Adams, but your old stomping ground is a real embarrassment.

The little brown ring around his mouth suggests he may have just had a snack at the local boy scouts club. Aids dementia is a terrible thing, but necessary to cull the degenerates.

Bawney discovered that the 2012 elections didn’t turn out as badly as he had figured for the Democrats. Plus, Dems weren’t getting the blame for the crappy economy. But since he already retired it was too late to stay in DC.

Now he will fellate anybody who is anybody to get back to his cushy job.

[JoanneSD]

I w thinking the same thing..he will draw his house retirement, and then pick up the senate pay, get laid off when some one else is elected and draw unemployment for the next 2 years..
