Comedian, author and former "Saturday Night Live" writer and performer Al Franken recently announced he is seriously considering running for Senate (Democratic ticket) in Minnesota.
"It's unknown how people will respond to a comedian running for the Senate," Franken, 51, told reporters, "I need to figure out a way to let people know I'm extremely serious about Minnesotans and their lives"
Franken is the author of "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations," among other comic tomes.

It's about time he put his money where his mouth is. Especially since the liberal radio conglom he was featured on tanked last year, filing for bankruptcy. I think Wonkette said he's reviving his Stuart Smalley character to appeal to the "Minnesota Nice" crowd. This is cool; I loved "Stuart Saves His Family", very underrated flick.
