Franken has a Dem challenger

[DesertFox]

Democratic Senate candidate Al Franken will face a primary opponent, an attorney from a well-known family in Minnesota legal circles.

Priscilla Lord Faris said she will file paperwork to run in the September primary before Tuesday's deadline. Lord Faris is the daughter of retired federal judge Miles Lord, who remains active in DFL politics. She is managing partner of a personal injury law firm.

Lord Faris said she and her relatives have donated money to Franken, the former "Saturday Night Live" comedian who won the Democratic endorsement, but she isn't convinced that he can take the seat away from incumbent Republican Norm Coleman.

I don't know what chances this Coleman guy has of winning this election, but anyone who can put Al Franken's snotty wise-ass down, I'm pulling for... I'm sending good vibes to the liberal lawyer wench - at least thru the DEM primary...

Wayne & Priscilla Faris
'70 J.D. and "65 B.S.

Full Court Press

Support women's athletics is something of a family tradition for Wayne, '70 J.D., and Priscilla Faris, '65 B.S. "My father was on a case concerning girls who wanted to join the boys' tennis team," says Priscilla. "I thought girls should be given more opportunities, and my daughter, especially."

Federal judge Miles Lord, Priscilla's father, ultimately decided for girls. "Shortly after that, Congress passed Title IX," says Wayne.

A passion for women's sports drives this husband and wife legal team because, according to Wayne, "they still play for the love of the game."
