Will Roland Burris Be Illinois' Next Senator?

An investigation is currently under way to determine whether Roland Burris is qualified to be Barack's successor. According to Senate majority leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), he's not. Personally, I think Mr. Burris has enough experience for the position he is seeking. In other special election news, Al Franken could very likely oust Republican incumbent Norm Coleman for the vacant Minnesota Senate seat. There's a scandal ensuing over supposed voter fraud. Of course, I always loved Franken as inept, insecure self-help guru Stuart Smalley on SNL. Franken's not a Beltway insider, and that's okay! Looks like the GOP needs to practice a little daily affirmation. Their candidates aren't good enough, they're definitely not smart enough (e.g. Palin), and doggone it, people don't like them!
