This is K Street in a nutshell. The influence is perfidious. This toxic environment is the one that Washington swims in and they cannot comprehend the contortions while they are in it.

2. I'm not Al Franken and...
I don't live in Minnesota, but I approve this message too.

3. K&R
The corruption runs deep in both parties.

4. This is a good idea.
In addition NC will never endorse such a thing. It draws a clear distinction between them.

I'd be surprised but elated if Congress would pass such a law.

Good on Al. I hope he beats his opponent (can't bring myself to type his name) like rug (or a rented mule - your choice)

5. I thought 5 years would be good, like a business non-complete agreement, but Al's idea is way better

7. Al's cool!
The incumbent Coleman is running some well-produced distortion ads against AL now, but the latest one has been skinned by local TV for the fraud it really is (really amazing development actually). I've been sending Al 10-15-20 bucks whenever I can. He's speaking the bare truth about the sty in DC. As he says, something's gotta change. I approve of his message!

9. I can't WAIT
to see a FRANKEN/COLEMAN debate. Those long shiny teeth of Coleman's will be on the floor along with his jaw!!! A stand-up comic up against a clown! Franken will humiliate Coleman and the audience will be splitting a gut.



Go Al!!!!

10. Interesting
Two Jewish guys from New York running for the Senate in Minnesota.
And Coleman went to the same high school as Bernie Sanders and Chuck Shumer.
In all fairness, Al grew up in Minnesota. Coleman is an interloping opportunist.
