Minnesota Senate candidate and former funny-man Al Franken (D) recently put out a very, very sincere video on green jobs:
Franken is taking on incumbent Norm Coleman (R), and polls so far have shown Coleman ahead by a considerable margin. But now former Reform Party governor, professional wrestler, and actor Jesse Ventura is threatening to jump in the race.
"All you Minnesotans take a good hard look at all three of us," Ventura told NPR this week. "You decide. If you were in a dark alley, which one of the three of us would you want with you?"

Ventura talks like a libertarian reformer, but has no notion of how politics works. An atomic back breaker just doesn't substitute for compromise and debate in legislative proceedings.
A ham headed spoiler, maybe just what Al needs to win.

Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer was my fave. But he was too honest and progressive.
