Are They Really Going to Make This Guy a Senator?




Al Franken's hyper-liberal Air America radio show was a flop because few wanted to hear his boring anti-American drivel, but that didn't stop the DNC from putting this clown on the ballot for US Senator. And they were all ready to do the same for Chris Tingle Matthews... that is, until polls revealed widespread revulsion at the thought.

Now I don't listen to the show regularly, but it's interesting to note how Team Obama and their MSM allies systematically mocked the idea of mere "entertainer" Rush Limbaugh having significant influence in the GOP -the DNC even ran TV ads to trash him- when he's never even thought about running for office, to the best of my knowledge. Any sway Limbaugh does hold in the Republican party was gained through a successful free-market enterprise... millions of people listen to him because they want to.

So a failed entertainer's OK for Democratic Senator, having never before held political office... but a successful conservative one isn't even allowed to have some influence? -please
