If the crowd present to hear comedian Al Franken at the Rochester Convention Center Sunday night has anything to say about it, President George W. Bush “is going down” to defeat in November.
“After 9/11, this country was the most united I have ever seen in my life,” Franken said. “The president had the opportunity to lead the country into a new American Century. He blew it. He hijacked 9/11 for his own political purposes and that’s why he is going down.”
Close to a thousand people cheered and clapped enthusiastically at those words, and the audience gave him a standing ovation when he concluded.
