Robust fundraising has propelled Al Franken to a lead in the race for campaign cash this year and confirmed expectations that the 2008 Senate race will be costly and tough.
Franken will report raising $1.9 million in this recent quarter and nearly $3.3 million for the year, likely outpacing incumbent scumbag Norm Coleman (R-Lame Duck).
“Anybody who was writing off Al Franken can stop,” said Steven Schier. “Anybody who thought Franken was a frivolous comedian … is just wrong,” Schier said.
Franken’s going to kick Coleman’s ass – I’d bet on that.
