If you lived in Minnesota would you vote for Al Franken? Maybe. If you were a fish would you vote for Al Franken? Possibly. If you were a fish who lived in Minnesota, would you vote for Al Franken? It seems so. Video after the jump.

This Norm Coleman guy may be crooked, fair enough, but the voters of Minnesota don't need to be told so by a Sopranos prop. I don't feel that the ruralites can only be trusted to absorb and remember messages delivered in folksy way. I can just see Franken's campaign manager explaining the pitch. "No big-city, Harvard-grad stuff here. Just down-home piscatorial straight-talk. It'll go over great with the trout moms."
