Look who's in the Hill
Bob McAdoo hit town?...Nah, c'mon son...The Al Franken Show hit the Graham Porter Student Union today. So, all of the true gamers came out for this one...
Hell, even my man, Frank Heath was there...
Al Franken is a very witty cat in this blogga's book, and that's not just because he plays Dead tunes between segments....He knows his stuff, and he's jumped a couple of a pegs in my respect book because he cares about local politics.
I'm most impressed with how his topics featured local guests discussing local issues. Like a true pro, he was able to blend them in with his national viewpoints...I still can't believe that he had my man, Thad Williamson, on the show...Chapel Hill High at it's finest! Get off Thad!
I'm also impressed that he gave well-deserved air-time to Lawerence Grossburg, who made some great points about youth today...Hint: Kids aren't as bad as you think...Get them involved, and they will respond...Great job, Larry, and way to rep UNC again...By the way, nice back-pack...;)
Franken stresses how necessary it is for the Democrats to reach out to their local areas. I'm paraphrasing here, but he made a great point saying 'just because your wife is from Michigan doesn't mean you know Michigan". If you're going to do anything in the next election, you have to reach out to the people that know the areas. The man practices what he preaches, and it's great to see him on a statewide tour...
On to Sac-Town for Big Al...
With that said, I could recap a ton here on this post, but I'm going to pass the ball to the infamous long-haired one,Paul Jones, who had a great front row seat with his lovely partner Sally Greene....Check out Paul's play-by-play at the 'The Real Paul Jones' here....Check out Sally's play-by-play at 'GreeneSpace' here...
Blogga's Note: Sally types better....Damn, that's a helluva talented couple.
