Big Win For Coleman
PewerLine ^ | 2/3/08 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 02/03/2009 1:24:30 PM PST by Buck W.

This report (link), hot off the press, signifies a victory for Norm Coleman in the election contest with Al Franken: the court hearing the contest has ruled that "all absentee ballots that complied with state law should be counted, along with those where errors occurred through no fault of the voter." Franken has been trying to prevent a number of ballots that complied with state law from being counted.

hope so- but people who are too “challenged” to punch a hole, draw an “x”, fill in a circle, or otherwise or fill out a ballot properly- seem to fit the Obama voter profile

No doubt you've summed up Franken neatly. But count on Coleman “voting his conscience” (voting with the Donks) on the big issues.

Could be.....that's the reason his constituents need to get in touch and let him know what's expected.

“Franken is such a typical “liberal” Dimocrap. Lying,cheating, unethical, hypocritical, devious.”

Sounds like he would fit right in Obama’s cabinet.

Coleman has the disjointed belief that Libs vote for him and therefor he needs to listen to them. The fact that Al Franken did what he did proves that to be a farce.

Ooooo, touche’. You win a prize. You’re right.

Franken is a total used condom.

Does anyone know whether Franken is current on his taxes?

If he’s not, expect his appointment very soon...

Classic Democrat cheat playbook! Count until you win then demand a stop to counting once you are ahead. Thanks for explaining.

No kidding. I hope you're wrong, but there are so many spineless, wussy Pubs out there now that you could, unfortunately be right.

What happened to conviction and courage and “damn the torpedoes”?

Is there any reason to believe those ballots might help Coleman?

If they are all "legal" ballots then I would have to assume that most of them will be for Coleman.
