Franken did the correct thing by resigning; he lost all credibility with the sex misconduct allegations.
I still can't figure out why voters think celebrities automatically make good Congressional leaders, or governors, or presidents. And many of these celebrities feel they're entitled to be voted in immediately to a high office - why they hell can't they get some experience with a local government before demanding high leadership?
And I don't buy that Franken's resignation is some strategic ploy re: Roy Moore. Moore has denied six ways to Sunday that he's a predator and denies even knowing his victims, even with evidence otherwise. Franken admitted his wrongdoings.
Moore will get voted in and serve out his term with no consequences.
