If Coleman is still leading after the recount and after the challenges are heard, I don’t see how the people of Minnesota could stand for the U.S. senate coming in and intervening in a state election. What is the logic? (Beyond hyper-partisan Democrats wanting to win at any cost). Reid is not winning ANY friends in the U.S. senate by these tactics.
I don’t care what Reid says. If Coleman leads after the recount and the challenges (which is likely), he will be sworn in. I can’t believe the people of Minnesota would allow the U.S. senate to overturn an election.
What do you think we are going to do. Turn Klobachar out at the first opportunity and support the Republican presidential candidate in 2012? Doubt it. Governor Pawlenty would invite Senator Franken over for tea to discuss global warming and the implementation of socialized medicine.
