It boils down to Chambliss. If he loses, then the democrats will steal MN at any cost including invalidating the election and seating franken in order to get to 60 votes.
Still, the Demos don’t have to do all that: they have Specter, Collins, Snowe, even others waiting in the wings to bail them out.

No, the Left does not need 60 Dems. They have Lieberman, Sanders, and RINOs, even if they don’t change the 60 vote cloture rule. And if they do seat Franken, he is likely to be an embarrassment, even by Dem standards. Not to mention that MN voters may resent being cheated when they vote in future elections.
