Biden: Al Franken Is A “Leading Legal Scholar”

Just for the record, I wrote a column bemoaning Franken’s instant domination of the Democratic primary over humanitarian and Nobel Prize winner Peter Agre as a sign of what is wrong with our political process. Franken wrote in response that I was suggesting the end of life as we know it.

Franken is clearly smart and has proven a leader on many issues. However, Biden’s tendency to use superlatives where mere adjectives would do has become rather pathological.
