Klobuchar is pretty popular here as a senator, and she's certainly competent enough. But it appears that even a lot of Minnesotans don't see her as presidential material. My concern has always been that she doesn't seem tough enough and that she's too willing to avoid controversy. She'd be a good attorney general, though, and if the new Democratic president were to appoint her to that position, Walz would appoint another Democrat to her Senate seat. Maybe Al Franken?

If Franken were to make a political comeback, no doubt he would want to do it on own.
