Amazing how 250 Franken votes suddenly "appear" at the Sec States office 2 hours after the "final" vote tabulation is released......

Franken is scum and is blatantly trying to steal the election through fraud. So that's the poster boy for liberals? A mean spirited hateful cheat and fraud who holds the voters in contempt? You want a senator devoid of character and ethics?

I saw the Al Franken Bill Oreilly debate where Oreilly made Franken cry. I don't approve of Oreilly losing his temper, but Franken is a mean spirited little wimp who has no idea what integrity or honor is.

I'm "liberal", voted for Obama, and I think Franken is a mean-spirited jerk. I don't think that it is necessary to be cruel or to lie if you have a good point to make. That is why the neo cons have their Rush, O'Reilly, etc. etc. They appeal to people's worse instincts. I don't think it is a good thing for liberals to go down the same route. We should be better than that.

You realize that spouting nonsense is not the same thing as having a conversation, don't you? Your extreme exaggeration and bile show that you are not so much interested in stating a viewpoint as trying to bludgeon people.

Franken is a much better choice than the corrupt and litigious (http://www.startribune.com/politics/national/senate/34424134.html?elr=KArksLckD8EQDUoaEyqyP4OW3ckUiD 3aPc:_Yyc:aULPQL7PQLanchO7DiUX - broken link) Coleman. Minnesota will be much better off with Franken.

I live here in the Twin Cities and get to see the local coverage firsthand.

They are both trying every trick in the book to win.

A pre-count for the Coleman-Franken recount (http://www.startribune.com/politics/state/34242129.html?elr=KArks8c7PaP3E77K_3c:3aDhUec7Pa P3E77K_0c:3aDhUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUU - broken link)

I wonder if Frankin will go on The O'Reiley Factor after he loses? I'd pay money to see that.
Rest assured, the fix is in. Franken will win by the 100,000 votes they just happened to find in the men's room of the Greyhound bus station.

Yes, I'll bet Larry Craig stole them and is hiding out with them in the men's room at the Minneapolis Greyhound station!
