Franni for Senate!

I put this in a comment, and people thought it was a pretty good idea, so I thought I'd try it out as a post.

If Al's resignation is not rescinded with the full support of the Democratic Party, I say Franni (his amazing wife) should be appointed to his seat!

I read in another post that Chuck Schumer is now putting his thumb on the scale as to how he thinks the seat should be filled. Well, frankly, the ONLY people who should have their thumb on this scale are the people of Minnesota. But if Schumer can open his pie-hole on the subject, then so can I. I and I want Franni!

It would be naive not to expect Democratic leaders everywhere to negotiate the replacement. That's why we have a national party.
