.."Al Franken was taking on the vast right-wing conspiracy before other people even admitted it existed," she told a crowd of 2,000 supporters on the University of Minnesota campus, urging them to give her rival, Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, a filibuster-proof margin in the Senate. "Al Franken, with your help, can be our 60th vote."

I wonder if the morons up there in Minnesota are smart enough to figure out just how dangerous a “filibuster-proof” Senate really is. It’s kind of like handing a murderer your gun and telling him to go for it.

It’s almost like Hillary is trying to help the GOP get out the vote. Nah, she’d never do that.

Hopefully Hillary is out helping this clown rather than someone who has an actual chance of winning.

“Although if Biden and Obama win they lose two Senators.”

Unfortunately, there is a long list of corrupt and inept Democrat trash to get a fresh Illinois Senator from in this democrat septic tank state.

“urging them to give her rival, Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, a filibuster-proof margin in the Senate. “Al Franken, with your help, can be our 60th vote.”

I thought that 2006 was a mandate that the public DIDN’T want a congress that would rubberstamp whatever the president wanted.

And even when there was no legal requirement for a 60 vote majority or the Democrats did not even bother to speak during their “filibuster”, the Republicans “respected” the Rats’ temper tantrums.

Franken is a political retard and a nut case. He should fit in quite well the rest of the dimocrats in Congress.

You stole my reply. Well it is eerily close. I was going to say Franken is stupid enough to fit in with the rest of the Dumbocrats.

Seriously, how could anyone take Franken over Coleman?

That is what the "Skanks" are working on just waiting her "rival" to be removed from the ballot!!!

If the Looney Toons in Minnesota can elect the nut case of Jesse Ventura that can elect another just as well. There is a reason the state bird there is the loon.
