If the rules don’t fit the cause, change ‘em.

This is devestating, and my earlier thread reported on the second half of the story but I was misled by the Star-Tribune internet feed. This ruling will give Franken about 100 extra votes. Horrible feeling in my gut, and if Franken takes to the Senate floor, standing and applauding at the State of the Union address. . .horrible.

“However, the court ruled that the campaigns of Coleman and Democrat Al Franken, along with Secretary of State Mark Ritchie and vote canvassing boards establish a uniform standard for identifying and counting such absentee ballots. The court said they should then be added to the tally.”

The results will then be multiplied by whatever number is required to bring the actuqal total to three fifths of the final tally, and awarded to Franken, whether he is leading or not and multiplied by pi, then adding the difference between the lesser of the two totals of both...

Since the State SC agreed to hear the case can he now appeal to the SCOTUS if he needs to?

Did I read yesterday that these contested ballots were actually benefiting Coleman?

Step right up on the midway here at the grand Minnesota carnival of elections. The Supreme Court of the great state has now entered the fray. Of course the elections board, Al Franken, Norm Coleman, and both political parties have jumped in. So grab your set of rings and see if you can put them around the election bottle neck with 1/64th clearance all the way around.

You could be a wiener...

No offense Minnesotans, but your leaders up there sound almost as if they were as big a clowns as my own state leaders are.

My sympathies to each of you.

As I have noted on political threads going back to September, after the Washington Governors race when our winning guy lost to fraud, republican candidates who win by a narrow margin should immediately concede as the dems will cheat till they win and we will do noting to stop them that matters. Save the money.

Good luck to you guys in Minnesota ... you are really suffering a political passion play.

If Franken gets it, you can truly say that you are represented in the Senate by a genuine clown. Who'd have thought it? At least Arnold and Ronnie were leading men before they went into politics. Who was the other Calif. senator who was an actor? He was a D .... can't remember. Anyway, he was a dramatic actor as well.

Welladay. Sorry, guys, that you have to go through this.

Coleman’s toast. The sorry state of Minnesota just elected a stupid, failed, ignorant, idiot, liberal talk show host and former so called comedian. That state is about as dumb as Illinois. They run about one, two with WA state a close third with Kaliforniastan and NJ coming on fast. Taxsachuttus holds an award all its own.

They’ll keep counting until the RAT wins. I knew this election would get stolen.

Put the blame where it belongs, the people of Minnesota. Enjoy the next SIX years of the little, red clown!
