From Al Franken's Facebook Page

[Algernon Moncrieff]

It was wonderful to see Hillary in Wisconsin last night. I remember in 2008 when we started realizing how close my election was going to be. Hillary called and said she'd do anything to help. She ripped up her schedule and came to Minnesota in the last few months of the campaign. Twice. She never wavered in her support, and I know as President she won't waver in furthering our progressive values. She stood by me when I ran for the U.S. Senate, and I'm proud to be standing with her today. We need someone who can get the job done, and Hillary Clinton is the woman for the job.

1. He's pretty popular

in WI, isn't he? (Apart from just being Senator, I mean).

[OhZone]

2. I <3 Al Franken! nt

[Walk away]

3. This is why the party loves Hillary and hates Bernie...

He has never lifted a finger to help anyone else!
Hillary campaigned for Elizabeth Warren too, and really helped her get elected.

4. Tell me one party candidate that has been helped by BS

Hillary even campaigned for Obama after he won the nomination.

Where was Bernie?

[Little Star]

5. Bingo

[katmille]

6. He. Is. Not. A. Democrat!

So why would he campaign for Democrats? In it for Bernie. That's all.

7. And he continues to show it by not doing what is best for the party.

He is clearly not going to win the nomination, and staying in just divides more people each day. Why would any loyal Democrat do that?

8. Thank you Senator Franken

9. Shows one of the reasons she gets things done and her commitment to others. Thank you, Sen. AF!

And thanks, Algernon, for posting it.

12. I fucking love Al Franken!

He has been a true gem in everything he's done, doggonit! From SNL to Air America to Senator!

[Maru Kitteh]

13. He has been a pillar of sanity and a thoughtful steady

presence. I so appreciate Mr. Franken.

15. He's been a fan of hers for a long time.

I recall in one of his books he sketched a diagram of a 90s White House touch football match in which one of the groups depicted was the "Diabolical Rodhamites." Which book was that?

16. Awesome! Thank you, AM!

[Hekate]

17. With Bernie, it's all theoretical, all philosophy. Hillary gets shit DONE. Thank you Sen. Franken

[BlueCaliDem]

22. Exactly! And she has the clout to do it! She's built strong relationships, allies, and she's done

her homework on Republicans and which closets they hide their skeletons. She will get things done as Madame President! Count on it.

Bernie? Not so much. He'll make a fiery speech and be too busy being in front of cameras and mics to do the hard work of a president. Can't count on him for nuthin'.

18. That's how you build a party and get Superdelegates

The Bernistinians don't understand that there's more to party building than bullying caucuses.

19. I had the great fortune of being there for one of those times.

Hillary was awesome. Warm and genuine, and made a point of knowing all the local races and supporting all the Dems on the ticket. I was a (mild) supporter of Obama, and I was blown away by how gracious and high-spirited Hillary was, doing her damnedest for local Dems when she didn't particularly have to. (And oh yeah, Al was awesome and funny. )

20. I LOVE Al Franken! And that he's a Hillary supporter is just icing on the cake for me!
