“Franken running in Minnesota? What a great idea”, purred **Shodan** , licking his lips. “Let’s see how Mr. Honesty looks after a _real_ campaign”.

The first thing to do would be to check the Franken campaign literature for Harvard University insignias…

Is that the best you can do, **Shodan**? Franken once pranked the AG with Harvard stationery? We in Minnesota don’t care, dude. The last governor bragged about smoking dope and banging prostitutes. Practical jokes are small potatoes.
