If the theft gets too obvious, it can serve as rallying point in the future. I love the idea of Franken being the face of the new democratic party. The guy makes Biden look like Einstein.

Oh, come on. Comparing Biden to Einstein. I am sure Bide would be insulted by that since he's the smartest man in the room.

It was a three way race. Any time this happens, its 52 pickup.

Frankly, I find it very scary that it was a close race.

Franken's concession speech;

I'm good enough,
I'm smart enough,
and doggone it,
people like me.

It wouldn't have been if a Libertarian associated with Ventura hadn't taken 15%

Will Weird Al Franken call for a major recount and probably find more votes? Probably.

I'm not sure that the established Dims want him to win since it won't make a difference on cloture.
