Back from a DFL gathering this evening and I can tell you the support for Franken is strong [View all]

this was a personal gathering, not really political but everyone there is active in the party.
I can tell you that a couple of our candidates for governor may have hurt themselves (with party activists) by jumping on the "Al should resign" bandwagon. There was disappointment expressed that they would be so quick to do the Republican's dirty work for them.
One of the candidates for governor who did not jump on the bandwagon was there and, in semi-private conversation with him, he did tell us that on his trip to the Range this weekend, he found that Al is still loved up there as well.
The consensus was: It was disappointing and dumb, but not a pattern of behavior and, as Al has always been a champion of women's rights, we want him on the bus, not under it.
