A majority of Senate Democrats on Dec. 6 called on Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) to resign as he faces multiple allegations of sexual harassment. And it seems quite likely that at this news conference, Franken will give those senators what they want. The first reason is that the Democratic Party has simply staked out a much stricter position on these issues than Republicans have with Roy Moore and President Trump. A poll released Wednesday shortly after the senators called on Franken to resign showed why. It also reinforced that his mealy-mouthed apologies were never really going to cut it in today's Democratic Party.
