MN-Senator Al Franken?
There has been plenty of talk about this for some time, basically lots of rumors for the past two years, but today on The Al Franken Show on Air America, he is expected to announce (links here, here and here) that he is running for the newly open seat in 2006.At least he'll be a funny, hard-core Liberal. Of course, the rumors have it that Garrison Keilor was looking at the 2008 seat. What an interesting pair for the Senate if that were to happen!!
[Update - 2/14/2005 - It appears that the funny man pulled a fast one on people, or someone must have posted something on the internets and it ran like wildfire all the way to the ABC new affiliate in Minnesota. He's not running in 2006. Still sticking to the story that he MAY run in 2008. We'll see. Opens it up for Garrison Keilor to run, tho...]
