Al's resignation speech was perfect.

He owned what he did, called out the hypocrisy, and leaves the Senate with dignity and honor intact.

I don't think we've seen the last of him.

You are assuming he is guilty of charges yet to come? I bow to those who are sure dignity and honour would be compromised. What was the tipping point? I am a feminist who just wanted to make sure Franken is the worst of the worst in the Senate. It's history now.
