Democrats lashed out at Democratic Senator Al Franken of Minnesota, after Los Angeles TV and radio host Leann Tweeden accused Franken of kissing and groping her during a USO tour in 2006, with at least two female lawmakers pledging to return campaign funds raised for them by Franken's political action committee. Leaders of both parties in the House and Senate called for an ethics investigation into Franken, something he echoed himself and both the DNC leader Tom Perez and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi called for.
It's amazing how so many Democrats are wanting to "turn" on him over those allegations. I don't believe for a second they could care less one way or another if he groped women or whatever kind of sexual misconduct he was involved with no more than the Republicans want Roy Moore to drop out of the Alabama race because of allegations of sexual misconduct. The Democrats never cared about former president Bill Clinton's sexual escapades while in the White House. However, they're "ganging" up on Franken for what I believe to be political posturing. The Democrats want to capture back both Houses of Congress so they'll make whatever move they can to benefit themselves politically. That's my opinion.
