    Having actually heard Al speak

    at various DFL picnics and events across MN.

    I found him personable and filled with self deprecating humor about growing up in Minnesota, then too his take on issues was sharp, to the point and he was able to communicate and even educate us about his positions

    His close election again was much to do with the pernicous Jessie Ventura I-party in MN. 3rd parties are such epic fail.

    The right underestimates him at their peril and he is a worthy successor to Paul Wellstone and it will be fascinating to see how his election affects the health care debate.

    Single payer anyone? I think so...
