Franken Agonistes

"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell, they are" TRKOF

Franken Agonistes Rush, yesterday, had a different take on Al Franken's resignation from the Senate (with Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren's plea being pivotal), than do I.  Rush's explanation was that the Dems are going to position  themselves as the party that cares about women -- as opposed to misogynist Roy Moore loving Republicans.  No. It's significant that Pocahontas was the "swing" plea.  Because, Elizabeth Warren, along with a dozen other Donks, sees herself as the Party's 2020 presidential nominee.  It's no secret that  Al Franken was also seriously considering a run himself.  And, he had significant backing.   I know this. I was scared to death of Franken.  He's the only Dem pol with charisma. He's  a polished debater who can couch any argument in humor.  There is nobody else on the horizon who can match him.  Pocahontas is nothing more than the self serving bitch we all have come to despise.  Thank you Ms. Warren.
