given the unrelenting hateful, stupid din from the murdock mavens over the past decade and more, and the fact that Al Franken found a way to get heard in print and on the airwaves above that pernicious roar that has gutted so much of American society, I think he deserves cudoes that I'm not hearing.
Of course he had to battle beyond the normal election cycle because being truly heroic, it was necessary to prove it by going the extra round. And he went the extra round and he won.
He's a true hero and patriot in the best sense. He has worked hard to win America back from the right wing ideologues. I can't think of one other person who did more to stand strong aginst the tide that was overwhelming the best in our culture.
