In reply to the discussion: Michele Bachmann eyeing run for Franken's Senate seat [View all]krispos42
(49,445 posts)54. Well, I'm sure she'll be a much better senator than Al
She's a woman, so she'll be totally awesome on women's rights. And she's very well informed, much more so than Al, and able to carry on in-depth conversations about a variety of complex topics and to see the underlying themes and causes, as well as how they relate in both obvious and indirect ways.
Man, I sure am glad that other senators from other states ganged up on Al and forced him to resign so we can get this PRECIOUS GEM of an elected representative! Whoa boy, did Gillibrand really strike a blow for woman by standing up to that woman-hating Al Franken.

I hope she does. We'll be able to hold it easily. Everybody knows what a whacko she is.

Back when she was running for Prez, Enzyte Bob would have been her running mate.
