take all those illegal votes out and see how frankenstien does then.

coleman shall contest them in court and the winner of MN state senate race might not be decided for months.

I also notice how alot of liberal senators congratulate frankenstein on his win, but I bet if it would be on the other foot, they would be screaming for a recount again and again.
Sour grapes... sour grapes... sour grapes... sour grapes... sour grapes...

Get the point?

Several differences:

1. Every recount in Florida netted more votes for Bush.
2. There are several hundred Minnesota ballots - ballots that are overwhelmingly for Coleman - that have been disallowed by the courts. I assume it's for legitimate reasons, but I'm not sure.


That said, let's get on with it. Franken is a complete dirtbag and doofus. He is a pathetic joke. And I have absolutely no idea how anybody could have voted for him. All of my family & friends, who still live in Minnesota, cannot figure out how he got even 100 votes in the whole state. Even so, he was elected to the Senate, so that's where he'll be.

#2. Sandpaper is coarse. You meant course.


By the way, this guy isn't even all that bad. I have seen much much worse. And for the record, if you need a lesson on what a sore loser is, perhaps you should revisit the 2000 election year?

LOL

The one was the only person who remembered who was vice president. I wonder if they asked any of those people to name other past vice presidents?

Al Franken anti-semetic? Isn't he Jewish?

He may be a clown, but how is he anti-semetic?

You are actually proud to say you elected this guy?

The really bad part about him is he isn't a dummy. He outright knows exactly how stupid he is.

Only in America can a failed radio host become a Senator....

Why is it so very hard for you to see how this election is very crooked? Is it hard to figure out that when hundreds of votes are "found" and some have the wrong election date stamped on them (not a smart Democrat who can't even cheat right) that there is something very, very wrong with that election?

Cheating during elections is not something that should be looked at in a partisan way. Cheating during elections is something that hurts all Americans in a bipartisan way. If cheaters get away with things, then the cheating just goes on and on and on.....

Just a point that should probably be in another thread- the electoral college should be done away with and popular vote should always, always rule. But that popular vote needs to be fair no matter what. In the case of Minn. with Franken and Coleman, something is very fishy there. Any moron can see that.
