Minnesota is becoming to 2008 politics what Florida was in 2000 or Washington State in 2006 - a real mess. The outcome will determine if the Democrats get 58 members of the US Senate, giving them an effective filibuster-proof vote on many issues.
When voters woke up on Wednesday morning after the election, Senator Norm Coleman led Al Franken by what seemed like a relatively comfortable 725 votes. By Wednesday night, that lead had shrunk to 477. By Thursday night, it was down 336, By Friday it was 239. Late Sunday night, the difference had gone down to 221 - a total change over 4 days of 504 votes.

The Donks always seem to have those inner city ballot boxes that materialize when an important race is tight and running against them. Though this time the ballot box stuffers seems to be the Iron Range which is rural but must be a Dem stronghold
The gang of 14 prevented the Reps from doing just this.... the dems have no such ethical concerns. It will likely be a long time before the R’s are back in the senatorial majority so the D’s may just do that - remove the present filibuster rule... Of couse even with 42 or 43 R senators, they don’t have 40 with guts to stop the socialism from moving forward!
What are you talking about? Anger and hatred was all the Dems had this cycle--against life, against Christian values, against Republicans, against the President.
This nation rejected American values and decency to give a radical Marxist along with his idiotic Vice Presidential candidate the White House and the levers of geovernment for four years.
Thanks for the ping!
If people will vote for this perverted POS in such numbers that they have, is it any wonder at all that they would “manufacture” votes for him also?
Our Country’s strong desire to be “inclusive” and “popular” has led us to lower the bar on candidates, and on morals ethics, as well.
People like Franken and 0bama serve to graphically illustrate that to us on a daily basis.
Not only to lower the bar on candidates but on the voters who are electing them. We have to clamp down on the massive voting fraud and emphasize integrity in the electoral system, letting only legally qualified people vote and making sure they can vote once and and only once. It's not all that difficult to do if we put our efforts into it.
Hey thanks! That cheers me up. The Gov. appears to have won this one legtimately. Unfortunately.
I must say, your message is dripping with anger and hatred.
Ironic, aint it?
Conservatism wins every time it runs.
Conservatism works every time it is tried.
Check into it- you’ll see.
no uniform standards exist in MN for ballot security. some counties lock them in basement closet, some(as already demonstrated) ride around in someone’s car. it’s anything goes in some places. that helps ACORN democrats.give them an inch and they’ll take a mile. IE: if it’s not against the law and on the books, they’ll make it up as they go along.
Actually, it’s not that cheerful. AG McKenna and SoS Reed are big time RINOs that, to my knowledge, did zilch to stop the theft of the Governorship in ‘04. Can’t speak to Lands Comm. Sutherland, but that’s not much of an influential job, anyhow.
I'm sure they've pulled some some tricks that are definitely against the law, with full knowledge that they in all likelihood will never be apprehended for them. After all, they have been singing their favorite tune - "let every vote count" - since the 2000 Florida fiasco. They don't give a hoot whether the vote is legit or fraudulent, just that it should "count" for their candidate.
And don’t forget such stalwart republicans as Christine (The Pristine)Todd Whitman and Arlen Spector.
Acorn strikes again.
Are you good Minnesotans going to allow more votes in 25 precincts than voters to overturn this election for Franken the Fraud???
