4. AAR needs him.
My 91 year old Canadian step-grandma loves him. They have AAR in San Luis Obispo and she has to have a morning Al fix with her tea.

2. The ONLY way I'd say he shouldn't run is if we have another candidate.
Why pass up a great chance to maintain the seat? Isn't that the point of Air America anyway? To regain the majority?

3. He's gotten much better
at being a radio show host since he first went on the air.

6. He should run in 2008 and take out Coleman
We have plenty of fine DFLers who can run and win in 2006.

7. 2008
Build up Air America first. That will be of more long term benefit to the American Left.

9. yes, but run against Colerman
Who better than a close friend of Wellstone's to really expose Normie for the lying, tragedy-exploiting sack of shit that he is?

And it gives Al more time to prepare

Coleman HAS to be taken out in '08. His being in Paul's seat is a slap in the face to everything the Wellstone stood for.

I'll never forgive the media, Jesse Ventura, and Coleman for what they pulled by distorting Wellstone's funeral

10. I agree
2008 would be the time.
