        Please lord, no. The seat was held by Al Franken and there's a far more progressive WOMAN who is the interim senator. If "liberals" stand for anything, supporting a Democratic woman over a white male Republican should be the baseline standard.

        It is a long shot but environmentalists and advocates of single payer are rallying around him.

        If the monied elite get their way - he'll win the primary. Rosie O'Donnell maxed out her donations the day he announced and asked all her buddies to follow. I'm not sure why it's not best to let Minnesotan's decide, but there you have it.

        He’s running against an incumbent woman, so I would guess not.

        As a Democrat and Minnesotan I support Tina Smith D-MN for US Senate. Painter should have gone after Jason Lewis in MN-2. I believe that is where Painter lives.

        "resistance hero," "resistance icon"... where do they come up with this crap? He's just another corrupt right wing weasel looking for a way to get power and wealth.

        I honestly admire his willingness to rebuke the Republican party to the point where he'd rather run as a Democrat.
