He's a very smart man who I believe will serve the country honorably.
There are a lot of Republicans who, of course, are doing the same.

There's nothing funny about stealing elections.
"Mischief in Minnesota?
Al Franken's recount isn't funny."
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122644940271419147.html
"This entire process is being overseen by Democratic Secretary of State Mark Ritchie, who isn't exactly a nonpartisan observer. One of Mr. Ritchie's financial supporters during his 2006 run for office was a 527 group called the Secretary of State Project, which was co-founded by James Rucker, who came from MoveOn.org. The group says it is devoted to putting Democrats in jobs where they can "protect elections."
Mr. Ritchie is also an ally of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or Acorn, of fraudulent voter-registration fame. That relationship might explain why prior to the election Mr. Ritchie waved off evidence of thousands of irregularities on Minnesota voter rolls, claiming that accusations of fraud were nothing more than "desperateness" from Republicans."
---
"The Franken campaign has also been wrapping itself around Barack Obama's popularity to increase its recount potential. Minnesota has a voter intent law, which means that election officials can take a second look at ambiguous ballots. Mr. Franken's people are already arguing that a vote for Mr. Obama certainly indicated a vote for Mr. Franken. This can't possibly be true, however, because nearly every campaign poll showed Mr. Franken lagging Mr. Obama by five to 15 percentage points -- and on Election Day he trailed by 12.2%. Mr. Franken ran a nasty, polarizing campaign, and in any case he was part of a three-man contest."

... of course not Larree .... but after all ... it IS the American way ! .... :)
Democrat or Republican ... they are all crooks ... and one could argue forever about the elections that have been stolen ... on both sides ...
... these elections that are that close, either show that there isn't any clear choice ... or half the people are complete idiots ...
.... but this one is at least funny, without putting on his smiley lyin' political face ....

Larree why don't you actually read some real news stories about it. Franken won fair and square as it gets.

I would be happy to see Franken take the seat in the Senate, to be sure.
But I also cannot help but to think how you would be screaming bloody murder if the chips fell the other way by only 200-something votes.

I heard that it's not a done deal. Franken is facing some legal challenge. Anybody know the latest on that?

This is why they had the recount. They took their time and did it right.
Coleman is going to delay this as long as he can with lawsuits, but the outcome is clear.
