Democrats were riding high: sexual harassment by Trump and Moore, and winning Virginia and other places and now Franken "spoiled it."

Interesting analysis about the Ethics committee. According to report in the strib, the committee is busy with complaints about financial affairs and they will not bother with something that happened before he became a senator. As it did with Vitter.

And then, when was the last time this ethics committee censured a senator? Why, a senator from Minnesota - Dave Durenberger. Oh well..
