Al Franken Makes Money for Dems--Woo-hoo!!!

Way to go Al and Air America Radio!!!
Al Franken's PAC becoming a Democratic force: "A new Democratic powerhouse is emerging in Minnesota this campaign season: comedian Al Franken.

His political action committee, Midwest Values, has raised more than $800,000, which he's giving to Democratic candidates in Minnesota and across the country.

'He's potentially a huge player,' said David Schultz, a professor at Hamline University in St. Paul, Minn., who studies money in politics.

Schultz said that if Franken spent all the political money he was raising, his group would be one of the 'top two or three PACs expending money in the state of Minnesota.'"
