in a dark alley?? I'd want Patrick Stewart with me.
okay, he's not running for the Senate in Minn, but I don't live in Minn anyway... and if I'm going to be trapped in a dark alley with someone, I'd hope I could choose whom that might be.
... errm... Is it hot in here or is it just me?? ... what was the topic again??

(warning: this one's a bit severe. I'm getting sick of this war.)
What a ridiculous comment. Is he playing on the fear thing like the repubs?
I want the candidate who has the best stance on the issues, not in a mugging.
But I don't live anywhere near Minn, so...
Franken advocated for the break up of Iraq when he had his show on AAR...glad I don't have to choose between those 3 in Minnesota.
Answer: Former Saturday Night Live humorist Al Franken: he makes me laugh.
So, under Jesse "The Freeway" Ventura, Minnesota will become a dark alley?
Well, if those lutefisk-sucking Norske's vote for his depilated ass again, they deserve him.
Didn't he quit the Governor's job in mid-term? Or was he body-slammed by a larger Governor? Jeez, why not vote for an actual clown? KRUSTY FOR SENATOR!

With enough Hamm's in you, everything sounds good. Those Purple People Eaters need to sober up, before it's too late. Ventoften is like the loudmouth drunk at the end of the bar at two a.m. You don't go home with him, Minnesota.

McCain is calling out Obama out on the FISA change. This is one time McCain is correct.
There is no, I mean absolutely no, disputing the fact that Obama folded like a cowardly compliant little cabin slave to the telcos and military industrial complex.
Obama now has a lifetime pass to Unlce Tom telco's cabin, as does all that voted for this embarrassment.
On FISA Obama is little knee bound bitch cabin slave to hie telco masters and a full blown complicit coward that should make Michelle ashamed.
By the way, not a word on CNN.com or MSNBC.com that our Constituion (230 years or so old) just took a bullet to the heart. Why? Because therse corporate fuckers, like Obama, do not care.
I am ashamed I supported him so vigorously in the primary, though I still have little faith on Clinton. Edwards was my initial choice and later Dodd, though Dodd later turned out to be a little whorish for his Countrywide buffet slop. Ended up with Obama because I eventually believed in his bullshit change. FISA is change, in the wrong direction.
Once he actually had to govern instead of mug for the cameras, his popularity sank like Dubya's after Katrina, and he didn't even try to run for a second term.

He'll decide next week whether to give Coleman another term or not.
I don't want my senators in a dark alley, you putz, I want them in the Senate doing work.
I'd like to see great speakers on the Senate floor mocking the Right. That's one reason I value Al so much. But, I wouldn't mind seeing Jesse's blunt dramatics down there as well, so I'd like to have both.
What I see happening, very very very slowly, is new party formation. The senate already has several independents in it. The more independents, the more the two party monopoly breaks down. This is a function of the peoples resentment of corporate strangle hold on both parties. Candidates need money to run, corporations have money, and want to control the law.
Eventually, the independents on the Senate floor will look around and say, you know, there's enough of us here to form our own party.
Another way this can fall out is the ascendence of the libertarian party. Since the Republican party has abandoned all maner of civics, reason and civil responsibility to public well being, there are plenty of civic minded rational republicans looking for another platform on which to land on, short of the Democratic party.
The Republican party's a failure from a policy perspective, except for the uber rich and the uber religious right. I expect a big split from there.
Wait, are we supposed to pick someone to "protect us" or someone we would "think least likely to mug us" in an alley?
Ugh.
He was such a crummy governor it's hard to believe there are still people out there who want him in a place of power again.
He was a real high school wrestler. Jesse was a fake pro wrestler.
Case closed.
Ventura's knees are shit now, anyway.
