Al Franken - Leading Legal Scholar

I'm certain that even an egomaniac like Al Franken found this Joe Biden-ism uncomfortable.

"He has been one of the leading legal scholars," Biden said of Franken today, according to the pool report. He also said that Franken "is deadly serious" as a senator. He made the comments while recalling concerns that then-candidate Franken could not be taken seriously as a Senate candidate given his SNL work.

Oh well. This is the party that insists that the sitting president was a Constitutional scholar.
