I said he's not the best thing to happen to Minnesota.<br />
<br />
Jesus, we're the fucking blue state that offered up Humphrey and Wellstone. And we nominated ... Franken? Franken to take on that fucking seat? Really, MNDFL? <br />
<br />
Fuckin' hell.<br />
<br />
Is he fit for office? Sure. <br />
Could we have gotten someone better? Yes.

      <![CDATA[Speaking as a former Minnesotan...<br />
<br />
(A) Franken didn't run a great campaign.  But yet<br />
(B) Franken is fucking awesome and would be a good addition to the Senate.  Let's hope he wins.<br />
<br />
"Commie?"  "Socialist?"  You know, unlike many candidates for high office, Franken has an *extensive* written record.  It's called his books.  I defy *anyone* to glean that he's a commie from anything he's said in any of those books.  Liberal?  Yes.  Commie?  Hardly.  DLC-style centrist.<br />

If you truly don't want people to know who you are, you'd do well to 1. avoid certain words (such as "woot") that you frequently use under your normal handle and 2.  avoid trashing people (Molly Ivins) that you frequently trash under your normal handle.
