>> His opponent, Norm Coleman, was weak and refused to challenge the result. <<

Actually, Coleman challenged Franken's "victory" for months afterwards, and even managed to delay that scumbag from being seated as a "Senator" for several months after the new session started. Both the Governor and the SOS also refused to sign Franken's certified "victory" after he mysteriously "won" due to "newly discovered ballots" being added to the totals during the third recount. It was only after the RAT controlled Minnesota Supreme Court ORDERED the state acknowledge Franken as the "winner" that Coleman threw in the towel.

Numerous "conservative" FReepers refused to lift a finger to help Coleman though, and sneered that he was a "RINO" who "deserves to lose" because only voted the way they wanted 80% of the time. As a result, they got a drug addled marxist Senator who votes the way they want 0% of the time.

Your history revisionism take on the whole episode is interesting.

Norm Coleman is a POS open borders Bushie. Now that I have checked his background, he is another Paul Ryan. F him.

” Previously a member of the Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party”

Now a lobbyist.

Double F him!

Well, I stand corrected. However, if he’d been conservative enough to win more loyalty from Republican voters, it may not have been such a close election.

Welcome to “winning by losing” hivethink. What a winning strategy, huh?
