The photo, whether harmless or sinister, is damning and just shouldn't exist. I'd be surprised if it didn't show up in the mailbox of every single female/suburban swing voters during his re-election bid next year.

My prediction is that Franken will realize that the seat is bigger than him, resign and be replaced w/ a surefire candidate w/ positions and values similar to his rather than lose to a Republican.
