"I'm good enough. I'm smart enough. And, gosh darnit, people like me!" I'm quite sure that I disagree with all three...

No. He's the prototypical smart-ass twerp who makes people smash their TVs. In fact, I can't think of a worse choice for the Libs. I hope he gets the job!

The big problem in all this is that Al Franken sucks. Stuart Smalley? Give me a break.

Jeez. This article is wrong on so many particulars, I don't know where to start.

I do resent being characterized as an old white guy with Manilow on my turntable, considering I'm a young white chick with Mystikal in my CD player.

We should start a FreeRepublic "Dead Pool" on this thing once it get's going. I give it about 18 months before they admit that the idea is untenable & they're sick of losing money on it.

Maybe if he shaves the hair off his back, he will last 5 minutes, that's all it will take for him to become irrelevant.

Many years ago, I posted an article about Al Franken's ratings for his very-short-lived television show, Lateline.

The article noted that he set the record for the lowest ratings for his time slot in the history of network television.

I'm not making that up. I wish I still had the article. It was from the NY Post.

Off topic: It never fails to amaze me that the people making the largest contribution in the fight against the Anti-bush, Anti-Republican, Pro-Israel forces are liberal Jews.

Talk radio doesn't need saving, it's very popular. I think it's the liberals that are dying day by day.

"Can Al Franken save talk radio?"

- I didn't know it needed saving.

The person who wrote this article is a big, fat idiot.

Franken unplugged

... a former Saturday Night Live star with some mediocre films to his credit, Franken hails from the top tier of comedian intelligentsia, the kind who parlay the obvious into the obscenely amusing.

Take this recent remark he made on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. When asked what he thought the big story of 2003 would be, he wryly replied, "I think the big story, I'm gonna go out on a limb on this, might be the war in Iraq. I think that might be a very, very big story to watch for the next year."

This is obscenely amusing.....? It's hard to imagine anything less amusing than these two. How is Stephie's show doing anyway? Not that I ever watch.

Re: Can Al Franken save talk radio?

Well, Janeane Garofalo proved a lefty could smoke and take a dump without pulling down their pants.

So, maybe Al can...

uhm, gotta point out. Talk Radio was a dead format until Rush Limbaugh. Rush saved AM radio, and the talk radio format - with a talk program in the middle of the day, aimed at the lunch crowd.

If Al Franken tries the same format at the same time slot - he is likely to fail for the simple facts that everybody likes Rush. He's funny. Nobody likes Al, he's a condescending jacka$$.

But what do I know.

I guess CNN-NBC-CBS-ABC-MSNBC aren't enough liberal outlets.

When a Hollywood type takes themselves to seriously, they fail. Al thinks he is the end all.
