Black rethinks Franken in today’s MinnPost

Eric Black offers a must read piece about Al Franken in MinnPost today. This is the most honest look at Franken’s candidacy I’ve seen, including the obvious flaws that right wing blogs like to talk about but also explaining the strengths that put him in position to be Minnesota’s next senator. This campaign has been anything but pretty, but Al earned what he’s got (in this case a senate seat that remains theoretical). If he takes the same strengths that appear to have won him this election he might be a better senator and a tougher 2014 incumbent than conventional wisdom would currently allow.
