AL FRANKEN is NOT running for Senate in 2006
Edited on Thu Feb-10-05 03:01 PM by meganmonkey
Due to his committment to Air America.

Still looking at 2008 though, so it sounds.

:shrug:


on edit: I guess he didn't say it 100% yet, he may be messing with us, but it really sounds like he is waiting because he thinks it is so important to be the media right now.

1. Why Is It Important for Him to Be "in The Media"?
When he won't even discuss election reform or election fraud?

(Shakes head).

He's funny, but useless to us.

Why this good liberal lithmus test on election fraud!

He helps our cause, he helps get millions more people are on board with the liberal talking points.

I'm dissapointed in him too, but i'm also disapointed the DNC wasn't able to catch the RNC with thier hand in the election cookie jar.

Al Frank isn't the problem.

4. Are you nuts?
Al is a huge voice for truth right now. He has a platform to speak out. AA wouldnt be doing as well as it is now if not for Al.

5. Most people I know don't talk about Election Fraud
but that doesn't mean they're useless to me...

6. Calm down, folks...I only meant...
...he's useless to us in the election reform movement, which he has publicly said he doesn't want to spend time talking about.

Not useless to progressivism.

At all.

I happen to be a big fan of his.

7. I guess he's waiting a couple more years
so that someone else can clean up the election process before he runs.

8. I have to admit, the bloom is off the rose after his lack of showing on
the election fraud issue

9. Good! I elect Garrison Kiellor(sp?)...... Garrison would be a ....
much more interesting Senator than Al!..... I love Al but he does tend to ramble into the echosphere.....Garrison has always held my interest. He would make a fantastic senator! Can't you just imagine his storytelling speeches to the US from the US Senate! I can't wait!
