You can watch their eyes glaze over as Franken unloads the wonkery. This isn't what was supposed to happen!! He's supposed to be a-scared of them!!

eventually, the one guy sleepily yaps "What about tha immuhgrunts!!" and then fades back sheepishly when Franken slaps that one down.

Hilarious. And boring.

Interesting example of mob behaviour, Teh olden "TEAR" lady is keen to get into Torch and Pitchfork territory (just along from Neanderthal territory)but can't get the backing she needs. Especially when her opponent won't play the game and appears to know what he's on about.
Compare and contrast to Town Hall incidents with the enclosed space and the crowd revved up on "socialism".
Typical humourless liberal, Al Franken Wah waaaah

Y'know, as a veteran of labour/management meetings I think this is kind of thrilling. YMMV.

I have found that trying to get some of these idiots (3 categories of idiots - wingnuts who hate obama, inbred hillbillies who fear "socialism" (or anything else rush, glenn and sean tell them to fear), and libertarian whackjobs who blame every bad thing that ever happened on some faceless evil they call "the government") to actually accept and confront the most basic reality even they can see with their own eyes is impossible. I admire big Al, but if they're dishonest, delusional, stupid or crazy you'll never change their minds. You gotta try to figure out what the rest of the people will allow you to do, then do it...

Even capcha recognizes it's something close to dedeven

Franken compares McAllen, Texas, and Mayo Clinic at around 4:00. He's been reading The New Yorker. Elitist.

You call that an angry mob? Around here that'd be a church social.
