    It seemed surreal seeing him there. I kept expecting Norm Coleman or Will Ferrell to ease into the shot. That was pretty exciting, and the fact that he’s being assigned to the HELP committee sure seems like a mark in our column.

    Congratulations, Senator Franken. I hope that was a copy of the Bible he was swearing the oath on and not a copy of Rush Limbaugh is a Big, Fat Idiot

    Franken 2012, because at least he’s pro-hc reform at this moment.

    Eight long months — what a thrill to see him sworn in. Somebody pinch me!

    This is cool, because I know it looked bleak for a while back when the race was on last year. He got in by the skin of his backside, though, but he beat that whiner Coleman and all his little minions, didn’t he.I always liked Franken’s commentary, and it didn’t surprise me that he would run for office. Good for him. Very good.Now the hard work begins I’m sure.
