Al Franken Now Beholden To Republican Special Interests

Norm Coleman warned him from the very beginning [...]
DNC To Coleman: Just Give Up

Kitty Harris Enraged Over ‘Made Up Dialogue’ In Fictional Film
For those of you who are rich and elitist and can afford HBO, you may have seen the much-hyped film Recount over Memorial Day weekend, which chronicled Al Gore’s efforts to hijack the country during the 2000 election in disenfranchised Florida. The movie was terrible and hilarious, although Laura Dern’s portrayal of then-Florida Secretary of [...]
