Franken for Senate?
Yup. Once again, went for the easy joke.
WASHINGTON - Comedian and radio talk show host Al Franken has begun calling Democratic members of Congress and prominent DFLers to tell them he will definitely challenge Republican Sen. Norm Coleman in 2008, the Star Tribune learned Wednesday.Well, this should be an interesting race, given that Minnesota has shown a willingness to elect...unorthodox candidates in the past.On Monday, Franken announced that he is quitting his radio show on Feb. 14, and he told his audience that they'd be the first to know of his decision. But Franken has been working the phones, telling his political friends he's ready to declare his candidacy.
Actually, former professional wrestler Ventura might have been of a less violent nature than Franken.
