Although he is still behind (but the numbers have changed significantly since the actual election), Al Franken will be meeting Tuesday with Democrat leaders in the U. S. Senate to talk about upcoming legislation. The meeting is described as necessary because according to his spokeswoman, Colleen Murray, "If he should win this election, it would be irresponsible for him not to get ready to take office," she said. "Minnesota deserves a senator who is ready to take office on Day One." He will, however, skip the orientation for new senators, saying that attending that event would be "presumptuous".
Good Grief!
