However I don't think that Mr. Miller helps himself with these statements. He should have keep his concerns private while looking for help in making sure that the results are counted fairly.
Invocating the name of Al Franken will result in unnecessary turmoil in his quest to join a body which is still not recovered from the seating of Senator Franken.
There is no need to cause problems for himself. The DEMs may still control the U.S. Senate even if he wins the general Election in November.
Sheesh. Talk about RINOS in leadership. Now the Republican national party ruling class are acting just like ruling class Democrats, lawyering up when they don’t like the way things are going.
The best defense is a good offense, and Miller launched a good one. Immediately puts the NRSC on the defensive, as they’ll have to disclaim bad intentions, and it puts them on notice that they’re now under, and will remain under, intense scrutiny.
In a close election, why do “found ballots” ALWAYS trend toward the liberal?
“...However I don’t think that Mr. Miller helps himself with these statements. He should have keep his concerns private while looking for help in making sure that the results are counted fairly. Invocating the name of Al Franken will...”
My friend, horsesh*t by any other name still smells like AL Franken.
You should ALWAYS call a turd a turd and let the cards fall where they may.
This is EXACTLY what is wrong with the GOP as far as I’m concerned...too afraid to “Offend” (Heaven forbid!) anyone.
Frankly, it’s perfectly damned OK to offend the offensive. And I can think of NOTHING more offensive than someone like Al Franken sitting in the US Senate, casting votes on socialist/communist-inspired legislative oppression that directly affects me, my family, you, your family, and everyone else in my Country.
It’s time to start calling these b*stards what they are, and putting the spotlight on them at EVERY opportunity.
Vote fraud, Democrats, and Al Franken should all be synonyms from now on.

I’m with Joe. It sure sounds like funny business is being brewed up for the count of the absentees.
It is no more, or less, socially acceptable for commie Democrats and commie RINOs to corrupt our electoral processes, than it is for honest citizens to vote from the rooftops.
“Pull an Al Franken”
Oh, that’s wonderful. If ever a politician deserved to be verbed it’s that jackass.
Congratulations, you’ve made your mark, Al. Unfortunately for you, it’s a skid-mark.
Miller’s the new guy in town, the carpetbagger from out of state. He needs to be careful with the whining. It makes him look like a democrat.
Miller is only saying what common sense tells us.
I nearly became ill with visions of Franken, as soon as the close results were announced.
Voter fraud is growing RAMPANT. He should be concerned.
Also we need to start letting politicians know WE’RE NOT GOING TO STAND FOR CHEATING!
Franken should LOSE HIS SEAT! He won’t, so politicians have just learned that they can get away with it.
THIS NEEDS TO STOP NOW!
She will if she gets the chance — and the RNC will help her. Though they wouldn’t lift a finger to help Norm Coleman PREVENT Al Franken’s theft of HIS Senate seat in Minnesota.
Pathetic, no?
I look at this a couple different ways.
One, I think by making a preemptive statement, Miller brings a spotlight on the process and sends a warning message to some of the Beltway types (and possibly Alaskan machine politicos) who just may have a vested interest in Murkowski pulling it out. In a race this close, it would be unwise to let one’s guard down or leave things to chance.
Two, there is Reagan’s 11th commandment: “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican”. Miller could have dialed the rhetoric back a bit and still made his concerns known. Invoking Al Franken was red meat for some of his supporters, but probably is going to leave a bad taste with some others.
Overall, though, I’d say it is net plus for Miller.
Invocating the name of Al Franken will result in unnecessary turmoil...I don't know if invocating will, but I am pretty sure that invoking will :^)
