        And now the @SenateDems better be formulating a plan for Moore when he gets there. I have little faith in the people of Alabama.

        To me, Franken complaining about a double standard undercuts his apology for his actions. "I coulda got away w/it too, if... blah, blah, blah."

        To me forcing a kiss is not the same as going after underage girls. All of a sudden "metoo" equals rape with a stupid remark. That is not the way it was meant.

        If forcing a kiss is OK and rape is not, where is the line between OK and not OK?

        Moving in for between the legs is not OK. A kiss is uncomfortable, but not rape. There is a distinction between these two aspects of abuse. Women who accuse men must know the diffrence.

        Maybe in November 2018, this play may payoff. However, I'm afraid, at this moment, the Dems have again shot themselves in the foot.

        Oh, so it's Trump's fault that he was stupid for continuously groping women?? All the groping I could have done as a man, who knew!

        It was very light jab. If me I would have burned them to the ground. Franken has more class.
