Republicans are prisoners in their own minds. The are prisoners to their “rules” and “collegiality”

Democrats are the equivalent of Orks from the Lord of the Rings series. Zombies that march unimpeded toward their objective, acquiring power and using acquired power to acquire more. When one is struck down, they just put another one up and keep rolling.

There is no creativity in the fight on the Republican side. I am very close to stating that there is no thought on our side either.

Forget the recount, hold a re-election. I’d be willing to bet that a large majority of Dems that came out to vote for the big “O” would stay home this time around. If they are so stupid as to elect a clown like Franken in to office, then hope is dwindling.

Well some supposed conservatives here say “let’s get em in 2010 and 2012 and ignore Obama being an illegal alien.” Unreal. The corruotion in this country especially on the Democrat side is stagger. Bill Clinton grifting $500 million. Obama nd his gang are probably worse. Incredible.

Wishful thinking suerae. 23 votes out of 3.5 million is a mandate for a liberal.

The process has been very open. There haven’t been any signs of theft. This state always votes for liberal morons...I don’t know why people really expected this election to be different.

Sure it can. Because "We the People" let it. We are too civilized to prevent it from happening.

In a sane society, we'd have the State legislature building surrounded by pitchforks and torches.

Nope. We go along to get along. We trust the system to work, despite mounting evidence to the contrary.

This is how the Germans ended up getting to a point where loading people on boxcars seemed like a good idea...

I find this entire affair kind of disgusting because here we have a comic clown with a disordered mind and a failed talk radio show actually coming close, if not beating Coleman.

Why is the race so close in the first place? It should have been a Coleman landslide if the voters of Minnesota had any intelligence and understanding of their responsibilities for citizenship in the community, the nation, and the world.

Are there any balls left in the Republican Party?!

They're buried in the frozen tundra of Sarah's backyard. McCain did his best to give them away, and Sarah snapped, "if you don't want them, I'll take 'em!"

She'll guard them safely until 2012.

The democRATs can also count on Collins, Snow, Grahamnesty and Warner as well as McCain to join them in votes, often.

The Bush bailout of the Big 3

Senator Al Franken

Senator Caroline Kennedy....

Sheesh.

Talk about demoralizing.

Can someone write me a positive/motivational response?

You are correct for most of Texas.

However, south Texas has some areas that stolen elections have a long history. ie. Lyndon Johnson (via George Pharr in Duvall County)

Another thing that will not work in Texas is the pacification and re-education attempts that are coming.

Franken’s ahead....just end it now. Since that was the goal, why keep up the charade?

I'm hoping to see the lot of them cuffed and stuffed.

For what exactly?
