I dislike Swanson and Klobuchar intensly. I have no idea why anyone likes them. They are the sharks of the sharks. As for Ellison, I merely dislike him.

"Small world" would be an understatement. I met Klobuchar, (with her dad), during the campaign, Al Franken over the summer and exchange pleasantries with Walter and Joan Mondale on a daily basis as they walk their dog past my job site. My Dad and WM went to law school together at the "U" 50 years ago and still know all of the same people they knew then. He refers to my dad by a nick-name only used by people who've known him 40+ years.
The only thing that I know about AK is that she is Jim's daughter and is completely unqualified to be in the US senate other than her famous (in MN.) last name. AF is a funny guy, but the thought of him in a position of power is scary. Mondale is the son of a rural, southern MN. minister and if you looked up the word "gentleman" in the dictionary, his picture would probably appear.
