Al Franken's senate seat.

Republicans will do everything & anything illegally and behind the scenes to steal Franken's Democratic 6 year senate seat.

Al Franken, and all of us have to be aware and fight for what belongs to Franken and the Democrats!!!

Please send Franken a donation to help fight off the slimy republican distortion machine!!

2. Coleman needs a miracle

Coleman needs a miracle



I just came across this from Politico:

Three months after Election Day, the Minnesota showdown between Al Franken and Norm Coleman continues, and the ever-changing storyline has now settled on a central question:

Does Coleman have any real chance of retaining his Senate seat?

The answer, according to state political and legal analysts, is that it would take a miracle. Miracles do happen in politics — but four weeks into a court case that will decide the winner of Minnesota’s tortured Senate race, the GOP incumbent is facing just-about-insurmountable hurdles to overcome the 225-vote deficit he was saddled with at the end of the official recount.

The court itself has not yet counted a single vote. Instead, a three-judge panel is considering a pool of disputed ballots and steadily ruling which are legitimate and should be counted, and which should be thrown out.

Coleman wants most of the ballots included, believing they will tilt the election in his favor. But so far, the court’s decisions favor the Democratic challenger, comedian and author Al Franken, experts say. And that trend is expected to continue.

“Norm Coleman’s life support system is slowly weakening,” said Larry Jacobs, director of the University of Minnesota’s Center for the Study of Politics and Governance.

The latest blow came Friday, when the judges considered 19 different categories of rejected absentee ballots and ruled that 12 of the categories had to be thrown out. That lowered the number of absentee ballots eligible for inclusion from about 4,800 to around 3,300 — down from about 12,000 at the beginning of the trial.

Coleman’s campaign asked the panel to reconsider, arguing that the ruling presents inconsistent standards for sorting ballots and creates an equal protection dilemma. On Wednesday, the court denied Coleman’s request.

I see Coleman as nothing but a Republican carpetbagger among other things.

8. Die repugs....die!
Their party is shriveling up to nothing. Good riddance to a fucked up, shallow and pathetic party. Take the religious right with you when you go, and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
