Imagine the wailing & teeth gnashing if a Minn DEM Gov. failed to certify Coleman in same situation

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

Oh, the name calling! The charges of attempting to "steal" the election. The approbation of another "Sore Loserman". A party with a Gov and and a rejected Senator attempting to thwart the will of the people!

I also think the Repubs if the shoe was on the other foot would make as big a grandstand out of it as possible and would carry Coleman into the Senate on their shoulders and demand that he be seated and that the Governor refusing to certify be impeached.

1. Of course they would

Until the Democratic leadership(?) tells them to STFU and makes them sit down and behave. Of course we need to seat Burris too. What Blago did may be tainted but it is legal according to the rules. Trying to change the rules AFTER the fact is what the GOP was notorious for.

2. Immagine the Democratic Paty standing up for 2 of its own for a change - that would be refreshing
