Oatmeal in the
morning? Al Franken stole the senate seat he
occupies. Did it quite publicly, and unashamedly. I tasted
bile the next morning. Which is why I've reacted this way
to a fundraising letter
he sent out yesterday. I mean, come on. His colleagues must know. They must
wish he'd STFU. Wouldn't you?

Franken: On Nov. 3, breakfast
should 'taste like victory'
“
|
In
one scenario, Franken wrote, it's "8 a.m. You stumble out of bed. Make
some oatmeal. Turn on the TV to find out what happened in that Senate
race, the one that was too close to call all night. But you gave $5 to
the DSCC … And, lo and behold, your favorite Democrat ... pulled it out
by a few votes. Oatmeal never tasted so sweet."
"But there’s another way it could go," he went on. "8 a.m. Oatmeal. TV.
But in this example, you DIDN’T give to the DSCC. And, by a few hundred
votes, some Tea Party extremist is now a U.S. Senator-elect — and
Republicans have captured the majority. How’s that oatmeal taste now?"
"On November 3, I don’t want my oatmeal to taste like regret. I want my
oatmeal to taste like victory."
