Poweline Blog reports the recount will last three weeks. Sigh.

Given Senator Coleman's narrow margin of victory, the result certified today will be subject to a mandatory recount. The recount begins tomorrow and will last for three weeks.

Another pertinent observation from Powerline (same link):

There has as yet been no full accounting for the previous adjustments that resulted in the shrinking of Senator Coleman's margin from 725 votes on the morning of November 5 to the 206 votes that preceded any final adjustment. Some day perhaps the Minnesota media will get around to taking a look in the interest of a fullly informed citizenry. Until that time, we will probably have to rely on the work of outside observers such as John Lott and Ed Lasky.

All that will be irrelevant after the manual recount, so it's not worth wasting any time and effort on it. If it remains as close after the recount, the fury unleashed in the courts by the losing side (whoever that is) will drown out anything that happened before.
