Is there a pool on how long before Franken gets out of control and attacks someone in the senate?

Coleman concedes. Franken will hold a press conference at 5:15. The GOP can KMA for not fighting this. They were not out of options. My donations will be funding trips to DC this year.

Not that those spineless bstrds in the Congress would filibuster anything anyway, but WTF do they have to spend money on that would have been better spent than fighting this to the Supremes? Anything come to YOUR mind? Because I am stunned.
