And she said, 'This will be a long conversation,'

Sickening thought.

[cripplecreek]

Oh man, GoreTV and senator Franken.

Does anyone know if they sell birdshot big enough to bring down a hog?

[pepsionice]

Why can't Republicans in the state nominate the geek by write-in vote during the next democratic nomination? If we get any republican to skip the republican run-up...we'd have enough vote to get Al as a major player....wouldn't that be great to watch?

[Chi-townChief]

Larry Lujack's comment to Franken was, "I hope it goes a little better than that radio thing."

[Pox]

"maybe make it a little less guest-heavy"

Sounds like Franken may be having trouble actually getting any more "guests" to prostitute themselves for the cause.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Lujack's back ?

"I asked Hillary, 'Can you give me some suggestions about running for Senate in a state you haven't lived for in a while, or in your case, ever?' " Franken recalled, laughing heartily.

"Sure," said Hillary smiling. "First you have to find an amazingly ignorant and gullible electorate, easily dazzled by celebrity. Then you have the media fawn all over you as if you are Jesus Christ so they never, ever, ask you a challenging question. Next, get your husband's vicious smear machine to dig up and expose enough dirt on your opponent that he wants to drop out of the campaign and you call all your husband's friends to donate money to your campaign on an 'or else' basis. Think you can do that, Al?...Al?"

[Tall_Texan]

"Oh, and Al, I almost forgot one last thing. Never, ever leave a tip."

Do it.

Couldn’t be a less likeable man in America, plus he has exactly zero experience in any political or business related field. He’ll lock up the uber-liberal, venom-filled, 30% of the vote, and garner not a single independent or moderate Dem.

Do it. Dork.

I wrote here yesterday that Franken is looking for an exit strategy from Air America..when he announces, he'll have to step down fro the show..

[Tall_Texan]

"Oh, and Al, did I mention the plastic surgery? Gotta have that! Although, in your case, you may need a LOT of surgery."

[KneelBeforeZod]

ask Soros for more money

[Core_Conservative]

My advice to the lame "comedian" "politician".... don't - you've already proved what an idiot you are.

[skeeter]

Here's my advise, Al - to enhance one's chances to win a seat in the senate a candidate ought to be able to hold their breath for at least five minutes.

[ride the whirlwind]

The only holdout, he said, is his 19-year-old son, Joe, who is worried he'll see less of his father.

No comment.

The group, called Media Matters for America, plans "to correct conservative misinformation in the media."

So David Brock strikes again.

[cricket]

"David Brock,. . . is helping to launch a Web site that will highlight what it considers inaccurate claims in media reporting by conservatives. . ."

This is getting to be an even bigger joke!

Now they will be dong 'double-time'; re-crafting their spin and lies; filtering and parsing the truth; a 'second time around'.

Surely a dirty job; but no one better qualified. . .

[cricket]

"A Limbaugh spokesman said he had no comment on the group's efforts. . ."

Good for Rush; no reason for them to any more mileage from his name. . .

[Tall_Texan]

"Oh, and Al, don't forget *black* pant suits. You won't look so thick in the photos."

[VOYAGER]
