MN Supreme Court Declares Franken Winner Of Senate Race
Story Updated: Jun 30, 2009 at 1:18 PM CDT

The Minnesota Supreme Court has ordered that Democrat Al Franken be certified as the winner of the state's long-running Senate race.

The high court rejected a legal challenge from Republican Norm
Coleman, whose options for regaining the Senate seat are dwindling.

Justices said Franken is entitled to the election certificate he needs to assume office.

When Franken is sworn in, he'll give Democrats a big enough majority to overcome Republican filibusters.

Coleman hasn't ruled out seeking federal court intervention.

Unanimous decision, by the way.

Obvious you do.

Sure. I can finally get a good nights sleep.

When Franken is sworn in, he'll give Democrats a big enough majority to overcome Republican filibusters.

dems in complete control.

you mean there won't be anything to blame the mean bad republicans on anymore?

Anyone else find it interesting that this thread is under the "Senator Al Frankin" thread?

"Guardian Council Upholds Iranian Election"

I'm not sayin'....I'm just sayin'... :)

You mean there won't be anything to blame the mean bad republicans on anymore?

You underestimate the spin power of the left. They'll find a way to blame the republicans still.

They'll have to include pictures in the Senate bills if they want Al to understand them.

Hallelujah. I was beginning to think that by the time the recount was over Franken have to run for re-election to take his own Senate seat.

Nice to have a liberal Democrat again in Paul Wellstone's seat.

In other news Al Franken is NOT Gay...

Watching Democrats try to run Congress is comedy enough, but this takes the cake. Congratulations, Senator Franken, you'll be about as much of an independent mind as Roland Burris.

Oh shit right after Rcade maybe he won't notice...

Poor Tom Davis.

I hope Al will hire him, he needs the work.

You're right SanAn. Electing a former writer from SNL and misrable failure as a radio talk show host makes him more than qualified to be a Democratic Senator. The bar is set low on the left side of the aisle.

So the Dems in the Senate would be careful was they prayed for now they have a filibuster.

Unfortunately, we don't live in a world where everything goes back to neutral when a new president is sworn in.

He still has to undo all of the previous administration's follies. It's going to take a while...if ever.

I guess the next presidential election will be the point when the American people deicde if it was enough.

Finally THE AL FRANKEN DECADE!

Wonder if he will wear his diaper at the swearing in?

Goat, You sure dont sound like a centerist. What would the Dems be spinning?

Bah!

Beat me to it.

RCade you can remove mine.

Al Franken wasn't even that funny on SNL. I remember back in the late '70s thinking how drab his stuff was. I recently bought the season 4 DVD set and I still think so.

If they were going to get a clown in the Senate (I mean a real one) from SNL, they need to elect John Belushi. Samurai Senator!

If they were going to get a clown in the Senate (I mean a real one) from SNL, they need to elect John Belushi. Samurai Senator!

Or Chris Farley.

unfortunately neither of those guys are available.

BTW, 'bout damn time. Anyone who thought Coleman was going to take it, even if you thought the counting process was bull shit ("finding" ballots in someone's back seat, ha!), you were delusional.

Also, the whining puling bitches on the left can now stfu about republican obstructionism and m-a-y-b-e start holding their newly elected leaders accountable.

This is gonna kill Lush and O'Liely.

We'll find out how much Norm Coleman really feels about the people of MN if goes Federal with this.

MN has been underepresented in the US Senate since January. But being a Rethug and a sore loser, he'll surely whine to the Feds and it will be another year of underepresentation. Maybe they should just send in 1/2 their taxes.

What would the Dems be spinning?

???

This really has to be explained to you? People spin to blame others for their own failures.

You didn't know this?

"It's easier to put on slippers than to carpet the whole world." -Senator Al Frankin

Also, the whining puling bitches on the left can now stfu about republican obstructionism and m-a-y-b-e start holding their newly elected leaders accountable.

I think some on the left will, however the "whining puling bitches" will stay the course regardless.

In a related story AL FRANKIN IS STRAIGHT ummmm hmmmm ...

Fight it, Norm!

#35 | Posted by 8roper

It no longer matters. When Pawlenty signs the certification the Senate will seat him. Then its a done deal.

They actually could have seated him before now if they'd wanted to really poke the GNoP in the eye.

"Maybe now the dems will stop puling and bitching about republican obstructionism."

Yea right, oh shit wait a minute I just saw a pig fly by

Sorry to contribute nothing, but... I wonder if Al will play GD in his Capitol office like he did for the lead-in for his radio show.

Well - just another clown in the Obama circus...if this doesn't make the US populace want to throw out the DEMS - nothing will.

There are still a lot of options - for instance suppose Norm decides to abduct Al.

just sayin.

FIGHT IT NORM !

When Pawlenty signs the certification

Pawlenty needs to take one for the team and reneg.

So, Goat, Franken won and the left succeded, but you think the left will be spinning...even though the right was the side that failed; would it not be more likely then that it would be the right doing the spinning?

Which btw, is what you are doing now.

Goat, You sure dont sound like a centerist.

You noticed that too?

Samurai Senator!

He played one in Animal House.

Senator John Blutarski.

Goat, You sure dont sound like a centerist.

I never claimed to be one.

Question: Does being a centrist preclude one from being critical of the left or something? I guess they can't be critical of the right either then. I guess they just have to keep their fucking mouths shut, it seems. Do I have this right, OWS and 726?

Was it the ballots they found in Franken's uncle's neighbor's car ?

what do you mean stolen?

Yes, you have the right to keep your fucking mouth shut.

duh. We all have that right. As usual, you missed the question. Is a centrist obliged to keep his mouth shut? Does he forfeit his right to be critical of both ends of the political spectrum? If so, why?

While I would rather have seen a R in the seat so the D wouldnt have a Filibuster proof majority, this shoould help the R's get back to power(if they get back to conservative principles) quicker because the D's no longer need any support from the other side. Based on the cap and trade, immigration reform and health care the dem's will screw us so bad that there will be a huge shift to the right in the next 1-3 years.

Sorry Dems but you are proving to the majority that your idea of change is not for the majority but the minority with a big F/U to the majority. Keep up the good work and Franken will be a big albatros for the Dems almost as bad a pelosi, dodd and frank.

Yes, you have the right to keep your fucking mouth shut. Sadly, this is a right you never seem to exercise.

I too believe this will hasten the inevitible swing of the pendulum to the right.

After suffering through Frank & Dodd's incompetence in financial oversight, can a clown like Al be any worse? Yes.

Ah...is it just me, or is the headline for the thread getting progressively larger as the day unfolds?

Congrats to Senator Franken, and my condolences to all you nattering nabobs of negativism.

This guy is going to be a QUALITY United States Senator.

That is why you are so happy, correct, lefties????

Because Senator Al Franken a wise man; a man of integrity.... who is here to help legislate on behalf of the people, right lefties?

LOL

Things can't be any worse than having that douche that you put in the WH, so who cares how many assclowns steal Senate seats at this point.

Goat, nobody has suggested that you keep your mouth shut. Why, I have begged you to tell us what you think, but all you want to do is pick a word and squabble.
The fact that you have been invited to enlighten us with your wisdom but are doing everything possible to wriggle out of saying anything but to cry that you are a victim of having 'words put into your mouth' might lead one to conclude that you have nothing to say.

Please, do tell us what you think.

I'm glad the election circus is over in Minnesota and I look forward to the circus in the Senate.

I'm not going to get excited til Coleman says whether or not he is going to Federal Court.
I think he will because he has the Republican Party screaming at him to Obstruct!

Spare us the shilling, danni. We all (including you) know quite well if the situation was reversed you would be the lead cheerleader for Franken to go to federal court.

Oh the enlightenment of it all.

Thanks Goat, for your pearls of insight and logical thinking.

Nice spin.

Coleman hasn't ruled out seeking federal court intervention.

"I'm surprised Winona Ryder isn't the Attorney General."

I think she has been convicted of shoplifting to many times.

It's possible.

With Capntrade on the docket the GOP would like to be able to hold on to their ability to filibuster a bit longer.

I can see him being elected out of a wacko district to the house...but the senate..omg what a hoot.

"We all (including you) know quite well if the situation was reversed you would be the lead cheerleader for Franken to go to federal court."

YEP
I, for one, will admit it -
Franken stole the election with fake ballots so, now backed up against the wall, it is time for the repubs to take a page out of the old dem OBSTRUCTION playbook.

I agree.

Pawlenty needs to say FUCK YOU to Franken and take one for the team.

for that alone I would support Pawlenty for Pres.

yep.

don't like it?

tough shit.

Nice spin.

???

What event or story did I spin? It must be well after 5:00 where every you are posting from.

would I get a different outfit from the other cheerleaders?

Depends how well the boosters do at the bake sale

Now this hear ain'ts quite wright. Thems demoncrats done mades them a deal with the Satan in the Minnersota. Ain't no kinda way the Supreme courts a gonna give no kinda comeedian no kinda certifying to be in the USA Senate. That their governator in Minnersoter ain't about to give no kinda certificate to no kinda Al Franken. Rush says ain't no reasons for it and I know he's wright 110% of the times like Jesus Christ. If'n that communest comeedian makes it onto the USA Senate then Rush ain't a gonna be held responsibillied for his drugs cuz he's a gonna have to makes him a trip for sum Oxy to make up for the angerized mind of the demoncrats on him. It ain't wright that that their commeedian gets all them votes when that their Colemann ain't gots them counted the wright way. Ya'll well be sorry in the 2012 when Sarah Barricuder Palinator gets on preserdenting and makes you leberalls and sochallests pay for the crimes of making the USA Senator be Al Francken. There's gonna be payback for y'all. Rush is wright and Sarah Palin and Michielle Bachsmann be coming to the rescue. Pass the Oxy, Al-Rushbo!!!! WHITE POWER!!!!

Ah, Goatster...that would be the Election and Supreme Court victory of Sen. Franken.

Your spin reduces the story to the "circus in the senate" twirl. And it took begging to get you to let loose with that tidbit.

Re read your silly posts and tell me what the fuck you are doing but spinning the GOP failure.

Your spin reduces ...

Again I ask, "What spin?" I don't recall having spun anything.

Make sure you understand the definition of the word, then give me an example of something I've spun

Norm Coleman sucks. Al Franken isn't the funniest guy on earth, but I did like some of his stuff in the book "Lies: and the Lying Liars who Tell Them," such as the Supply Side Jesus cartoon.

What The F*** is wrong with Minnesota?..I mean beside Minneapoli-stan

Coleman concedes

Republican Norm Coleman is addressing supporters in St. Paul following a Minnesota Supreme Court decision today that found Democrat Al Franken has won the election.

"I join all Minnesotans in congratulating our newest United States senator, Al Franken," Coleman said. "I have never believed that my service is irreplaceable. We have reached the point where further litigation damages the unity of our state, which is also fundamental. In these tough times, we all need to focus on the future. And the future today is we have a new United States senator."

blogs.usatoday.com

Good for Norm. I don't really blame him for taking it through the state judicial system. But enough is enough and he just did the honorable thing.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Look at all the little wingnuts losing their minds.

Snort!

You reap what you sow, and in the case of the last 8 years, you've got a lot of reaping coming your way.

Congrats Senator Franken....LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Norm Colesmann done went up and concedered to that cumeedean Al Francken. Damn nows I is gonna have two gets me some of that Michelle Jackson Jesus Juice and sum of that Al-Rushboo Oxy and drowns my sorrows of the sochallism. This hear ain't wright and I aint's a gonna take it cept until after the Jesus Juice and Oxy's where off. Until then TinyElvis is a gonna be all wankered on Jesus Juice and Oxy. Damn you sochallests and leberalls and you communests in Minnersota two. This hear is probably abouts to put the supreme leader Al-Rushbo over the edge to Oxy and his Jesus Juice two. Maybe Al-Rushbo can cum on over to the trailer park for a partay of Jesus Juice and Oxy.

Oh I get it, "Tiny"Elvis IS Frankf2.5!

Damn that was weak. I'll attribute it to your still being in shock over the words Senator Al Franken

The funny (or sad) thing is that Franken's election probably won't change too much in the Senate. We still have plenty of Blue Dogs who are virtually Republicans. On some issues he may make 60 to break a filibuster but on the really critical ones, like health care or cap and trade, I'm not so sure his vote will tip the balance.

BTW, can't wait for Bill O'Rielly to congratulate the new Senator.
Say it Bill....Senator Al Franken. Nice ring to it, eh???

I gave you the example Goat.

Cute post, OWS, but claiming the senate will be a circus is not a spin.

Sorry you typed those double words for nothing. That looked like something the bOoB would do, sad to say.

Why are there so many people here gloating? They act as though they had a personal hand in Franken's election. If you aren't from Minnesota, cut the childish gloating. It isn't becoming of adults. Even if you are from Minnesota, you have somewhat of a right, but I doubt if you would be gloating. The people I've met from Minnesota are pretty cool and down to earth.

Wow, what a display on this thread of Grumpy Obstinate Pelulance. Any questions, class, as to why the GOP's popularity has sunk into tiny numbers?

This is not a partisan issue--it's election results, after a really, really thorough process. And the results are IN.

It ain't over 'til it's over, they say. And ... it's over. Welcome Senator Al Franken to Washington, and move on and register to vote in the next election. Might help y'all to get the GOP poll numbers out of the basement between now and then. Nothing so far seems to be working, so keep trying--and maybe you might want to change your strategy of being so nasty, hateful and and petulant in forums like this. Doesn't seem to be going over so much outside circle-jerk echo chambers like this one.

Hope this explanation helps.

Goat doesn't owe anyone on here an explanation as to how or where he wants to spend his time.

This is funny. Goatman thought because Andrea was arguing with me on ideology she would side with him on his personal attacks. Instead she bitch-slaps him. LOL.

Coleman has said it's over. he is NOT pursuing it any longer.. no SC.

apparently some of you somehow missed that.

BTW it really is a shame about Norm - I really love his coolers and oil lamps for campin trips.

Well, it looks like he won't be busy for a while so you two can hang out together and swap "coolers" . Maybe you should... you know...get a room.

Anyway gratz to the newest Senator! Al Franken (D)!

Way to outlast them!

He who laughs last gets to be Senator! (at least in this case)

Coleman has conceded, it IS over.

"Ahhh. Mr. "Independent's" criticisms as one-sided as ever, I see."

He's independent. He's non-partisan. Also non-ideological. Apparently doesn't have any point of view that can be described in the english language. Goatism basically boils down to the desire to engage in non-stop pissing contests with those who are left-of-center.

Wisgod,

Al Franken graduated from Harvard, cum laude, in 1973. Does YOUR close-cover-before-striking internet college even have an alumni club?

And I thought O'Reilly would be a sore loser:

Wow, sanan. I mention 'children' and you consider this one sided? I guess you must've identified the left with children? I mentioned gloating, too. Maybe you associated the act of gloating with the left? I never mentioned a party. You make the associations.

I never claimed to be independent, btw. Non-partisan as in not belonging or endorsing a party. Learn the difference

I would like to see more former and current SNL cast members in national politics. For example, Chris Parnell would be good to replace Sen. Jeff Sessions.

#173 | Posted by goatman

So would one not belonging to, or endorsing a party not then be independent of them?

And don't play your little coy game of "I never said... you made the assumption". It hasn't fooled anyone in a long time now.

What a great couple of weeks it has been.

The Iranian mullah's are upholding their sham of an election and killing some examples.

The Wisconsin supreme court say's it's okay to use fraudulent election ballots and installs Stewart Smalley as a US Senator.

And Michael Jackson's dead.

All in all a great couple of weeks.

Eh lefties?

And for those stating that the dems will no longer have anyone to blame for the country's problems...

The platform that every right winger runs on is lower taxes, less government, tougher on crime, stronger military, family values and to support the struggle for freedom around the world.

Yet every repub, starting with Reagan and since, has left us with higher taxes, bigger government, greater crime, shrunken support for families and, each in turn, the largest deficits on record for his time.

Add to that your opposition of unions and you've pretty much staked yourselves out as the enemy of the working man.

And when it comes to supporting freedom, it seems only in cases where our strategic or business interests hold sway. They seemed pretty quiet while millions were being slaughtered in Africa.

So what is it exactly you stand for again?

At least try to get your facts straight. It's Minnesota, not Wisconsin.

Here is the picture of Al Franken now up on the Drudge Report.

No comment. lol

Sorry Ray.

I always get the 2 mixed up.

They're both to cold for my taste.

So, nulli -- I keep asking this question to a lot of people, but none answer. If anyone should, it should be you since you are the most obsessed with my non-partisan ship. So please answer or let the DR know you are full of shit with your assessment of me.

You base your narrow view of me on a couple of items. But add to that that am also pro early term abortion, pro gay marriage, pro environment, anti prayer in school, didn't like bush the president, never agreed with the war in Iraq, anti death penalty, have voted for far more democrats than republicans in my life.

Given these facts, how can you call me conservative? Why is it you cherry pick a few of my political idealisms and base your assessment on those?

My co-workers know these qualities of me and they call me a bleeding heart liberal because of them. What do you think you are more correct than they are? You are allowed to cherry pick, but they aren't?

Well? As the one who harps on me the most about this, I'd really like an honest answer.

Sanan, if you want to chime in, I'd like to hear what you have to say.

#181 | Posted by goatman

Whatever you are in your personal life, on here you are consistently quick to criticize Democrats and liberals while more often than not ignoring equivalent behavior in Republicans and conservatives.

So would one not belonging to, or endorsing a party not then be independent of them?

Sorry to butt in on this one, but it's a distinction I always try and make clear as I registered on the voting rolls as an "indpendent" which is separate and apart from someone who is a member of the actual Indpendent Party.

Wish they could do something to make it clearer as more and more people register as "independents" (belonging to no political party) confused with those actually politically affliated with the Independent Party.

I'm assuming you mean the climate, since I've generally found those folks (in both states) to be some of the most friendly and sincere people around.

BTW: while it's probably not quite up to the level of an August heat wave in Louisiana, mid-summer in Minnesota/Wisconsin can be VERY hot/muggy. That's what they get for being so "continental".

" mid-summer in Minnesota/Wisconsin can be VERY hot/muggy "

The mosquitoes are birds of prey; Carrying off small children and dogs.

As for heat, we just had more 100+ days in June than is "normal" for the whole Summer. A cold front just blew in. It's 98.

#191 | Posted by goatman

It wasn't a try... it was a dead-on assessment of the type of game you revel in here.

Whatever you are in your personal life, on here you are consistently quick to criticize Democrats and liberals while more often than not ignoring equivalent behavior in Republicans and conservatives.

I've made my liberal views quite clear many times. The fact that I don't argue their points enough to suit you does not make me right wing.

I don't consider your feelings or how much I should pursue an issue to suit you and null when I pen my posts.

Deal with it

#194 | Posted by goatman

Other people have opinions and points of view here, and we are free to express them.

Deal with that.

Goat,

The problem here is the perspective from which the same folks, who are always chasing you, see the world from.

Few extremists see themselves as extremists. Therefore they wrongly accuse folks even slightly right of center of being extremists to the right.

By your own admission you tell us that others you work with accuse you of being a leftie. And yet you are called a right wing asshole here.

I understand as I get the same thing where I work. I am accused of being liberal all the time.

I have always attributed this to the fact that this place has some way extreme libs who are denying they are such

Class hair-splitting from Petty-Goat. What a tard. LOL.

Classic deflection. The difference between celebrating and gloating is far from only a hair's breadth difference.

Change the English language in the name of deflecting. LOL

Ooops didn't need to post this.

It wasn't a try... it was a dead-on assessment of the type of game you revel in here.

You are the first person I've ever met who thought that careful choice of words is a game.

Do you think that of everyone? 'Cause your boy obama chooses his words very, very carefully. Is he playing a game, too?

Other people have opinions and points of view here, and we are free to express them.

I am dealing with it. I'm correcting you. Of course you and null arrogantly feel that you know my mind and heart better than I do. LOL

Poor, nulli. Stuck between a rock and a hard place. If he doesn't answer my question, he looks like a coward who is running with his tail between his legs.

Goat is all baaaaad. He hides behind a wall of "go learn the difference between" and "Thats not what I said". without ever clarifying what he meant.

This technique allows him in his own shallow little mind to never lose a debate.

Oh sure, he is dead wrong but the "never used that word, dont put words into my mouth"...it is just kind of his pussy way of avoiding the substance of the discussion. Cause once he starts in its not the sublject of the thread he wants to fight about, it is the "I never said that" deflection. A conversational equivalent to " look over there".

Ask him what he means or thinks and he studiously dodges any answer, prefering the "thats not what I said, I choose my words carefully" bull shit.

By the way, Franken, a Democrat has won by unanimous decision. So, anyone who disagrees with you are "spinning left"?

First off we need to remove all Republicans from every office and replace them with competent elected individuals. Then we can replace all of the Democrats.

Correcting the districting imbalance is obviously a means to begin that process.

Bribe-proffering lobbiests should be shot in the kneecaps on site.

In its order, the court found that:

1. Coleman did not establish that the lower court's decision constituted a post-election change in standards that violates substantive due process;

2. Coleman did not prove that either the trial court or local election officials violated the constitutional guarantee of equal protection;

3. The trial court did not abuse its discretion when it excluded additional evidence;

4. Inspection of ballots is available only on a showing that the requesting party cannot properly be prepared for trial without an inspection. Because appellants made no such showing here, the trial court did not err in denying inspection;

5. The trial court did not err when it included in the final election tally the Election Day returns of a precinct in which some ballots were lost before the manual recount.

Good point, kirk. The dems can't handle the power without going nuts and hanging themselves. They did it with Carter. Not only did Carter fail to get re-elected, but he was replaced by a Republican. Congress's democratic numbers began to decline.

I foresee the same thing as the pendulum swings back to the right. The left can sit back and gloat for only so long before the Americans get sick of it and throw them out. They will blow their chance at greatness just as Carter did.

This from the party that put the star of "Bedtime for Bonzo" in the White House 30 years ago.

And from member of one of the 49 states who put him into office.

Let's see what Pawlenty does - let's see what Coleman's legal tries to do.

Uhm... Coleman conceded and Pawlenty is signing the certifiction this evening.

*eye roll*

#156 | Posted by SanAntonioRogue

oh really what time did Coleman concede?? b/c I was not ferociously scanning the breaking news stories like you.... i had just logged in from my laptop on the train ride home when i wrote that ....so i did not know that at the time.

So what time EST did Coleman concede? i do not think i heard he had conceded before I left my office last night -

The people of minnesota must be the dumbest and most backward people on the planet. They elect an idiot like ventura that has been slammed into the mat one to many times and now they vote for a comedian that is about as funny as michael jacksons face. Maybe its time to use these same people to test new virus strains on. It might prove useful to the rest of the county that matters.

Al Franken won the U.S. Senate election . . . . .

waiting for the punch line (w drum roll & rim shot)

waiting for the punch line (w drum roll & rim shot)

There are going to be a lot of punch lines in the next few years. Not just from Al, but the heady democrats in general. They seem to think they are invincible and haven't learned about this swinging pendulum thing. I predict they will hasten the inevitible return to the right.

hey seem to think they are invincible and haven't learned about this swinging pendulum thing.

#264 | Posted by goatman

On the contrary. Despite a certain amount of bluster, the Democrats have been rather tentative in pushing through their agenda. They've spend a lot of time and energy trying to play the "bipartisan" game, and used the "if we only had 60 votes" line as an excuse.

That excuse is gone now and expectations are going to increase for them to get something done. With Pelosi and Reid in charge I'm not overly optimistic, but we'll see.

"Maybe the Obama admin and like-minded folks are being a chance at greatness like Carter had"

New right wing talking point???
Hadn't heard this one before.

It's amusing to observe the jubilation and angst (depending upon where one's sentiments lie) regarding Senator-elect Franken's confirmation. Historically (and ESPECIALLY in recent years), the congressional Democrats have hardly voted as a unified bloc. Of course, as the number of Democrats in the House and Senate increases, it becomes increasingly easy for the Democrats to 'herd the chickens' and legislate their agenda. However, those who think it's "a given" are not paying attention to the realities of the situation.

TWELVE POSTS and some name calling to boot......I see someone is furious that Coleman lost.

Please, try not to kick the dog.

Not being from Minnesota, what is there to be furious about? You do realize you have to be a State resident to vote there, right Einstein?

Oh good for you Sanan, you already knew that coleman conceded about 60 minutes ago .....

Are you so desperate to show that you knew about something a an hour or two before someone else .... that you don't mind portaying yourself as a nasty douche?

I have things to do like, um WORK, etc...

so forgive me for not having ass sores from sitting in front of the Internets every second.

I think most normal people who are not sociopaths would have answered my post like this

8 roper: let's see what coleman does
normal person : coleman conceded about an hour ago.

8 roper: oh. shit.

Ya gets the respect ya earns Ropie.

Why couldn't they have just had another bush/Gore
style recount and let the GOP take the seat. they just love to have the power?!

This all doesn't really matter ,

Give the dems Ten more seats it won't matter much b/c it won't be for long .... they have already worn out their welcome in Congress.

Its over for the dems in 2010:

from Gallup.com:
PRINCETON, NJ -- A Gallup Poll finds a statistically significant increase since last year in the percentage of Americans who describe the Democratic Party's views as being "too liberal," from 39% to 46%. This is the largest percentage saying so since November 1994, after the party's losses in that year's midterm elections.

Ya gets the respect ya earns Ropie.

#270 | Posted by SanAntonioRogue

That's beside the point LOL! .... you did not answer the question:

For your review again:

Are you so desperate to show that you knew about something a an hour or two before someone else .... that you don't mind portaying yourself as a nasty douche?

and ...try to think beyond ME for a second !

Also from Gallup:

But the Democratic Party still compares favorably to the Republican Party from the standpoint that more Americans say the Democrats' ideology is "about right" (42%) than say this about the Republicans' ideology (34%).In fact, the 34% who say the GOP is about right is a new low since the question was first asked in 1992, and a far cry from November 1994 and November 2002, when majorities thought the Republicans' views were appropriately balanced.

Nice spin attempt, but what does "the ideology is "about right"
mean?

I will tell you:

people were asked if they thought either party was in step with it's supposed ideologies.

something like this: " is the dem party aligned with the ideolgoes you feel are the right ones for the dem party?"

answer - yes they are "about right".

people were not asked if the dems had the "right" ideology vs republicans having the "right" ideology.

are you following me?

go read the Gallup site

either you were spinning, or stupid.

That excuse is gone now and expectations are going to increase for them to get something done. SAR

I believe this to be true.

Well, as Alexis de Tocqueville said, people get the government they deserve. I wouldn't care so much if Franken's lunacy was only going to affect Minnesota, but he's just another far left loon in an increasingly far left party, and individual senators have quite a bit of power, national power.

With very important and potentially damaging legislation before the senate, such as cap and trade, its not a happy day that a guy like Franken is in the senate. But all that being said.. at least half the people of MN voted for him, and the court ruled on the margins (I guess someone had to).. so, he's the senator.

Could well be that the people of MN are going to rue the day they elected the fool however. Until then.. God help us.

"But all that being said.. at least half the people of MN voted for him, and the court ruled on the margins (I guess someone had to).. so, he's the senator."

The "progressives" have it figured out now. Look for more of the same in the future:

"This is now the second time Republicans have been beaten in this kind of legal street fight. In 2004, Dino Rossi was ahead in the election-night count for Washington Governor against Democrat Christine Gregoire. Ms. Gregoire's team demanded the right to rifle through a list of provisional votes that hadn't been counted, setting off a hunt for "new" Gregoire votes. By the third recount, she'd discovered enough to win. This was the model for the Franken team."

online.wsj.com

about god damned time. Dont like Franken one bit but he did win.

If you'd like to bring my penis into this, then you should know that it is in fact much larger than average. I dare say that it would make you jealous and more likely to engage in "goat" behaviors with the farm animals. So TOUGH SHIT.

Partay down!!!

Donner,

I really don't know what to make of your comment. Eight years? Assuming the republic can endure for 18 more months, I strongly believe that the power of the dems will be either nipped or ended in congress. Two years after that, the White House will once again be in Republican hands. I can't believe that the public would be dumb enough to repeat this mistake.

"Two years after that, the White House will once again be in Republican hands."

Possible but I seriously doubt that the Republicans will recover for quite a while. The entire country knows it was their policies which brought down the economy and I don't think we will forget any time soon.

the entire country???
I dont think so...and the masses at tea parties this holiday will bear that out...
I am wondering if cnn and the closet queen will resort to using porn to talk shit at us this time...

I have said..2010...significant gains in congress..and IF obama wins in 2012 and there is a republican congress to keep his marxist hands in check, it wouldnt the end of the republic...if DEMS still in controll by then...
the end is near...

AND AL FRANKEN IS STILL A big fat liberal fuck

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
! Enjoy! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Senator Franken! Say it. Realize it. Choke on it.

still more proof that progressives in the early part of the last century fucked up when the way senators were elected AS THE FOUNDERS put forth was the WRONG thing to do...

or WAS IT....

hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm

Hells yeah!!! Al Franksen is a fat ol leberall fuckster. Ain't no way that cumeedean can be no kinds of senator in the USA USA USA!!!

BTW, congratulations on Franken's win, briwo. It seems you must've had a great part in his success. I don't know what you did, but from your gloating, it must've been quite a bit.

If the energy you put into getting him elected is half as much as you put into your gloating, you deserve to be proud indeed.

Ummmm. Could it be that the 34 percent who say the gop is about right are moderates?

My guess would be yes.

See yall in 10. Democrats are toast.

Well, with a super-majority in the Senate and a majority in the House, there can be no more complaining about the Republicans. From here on out is all Democrat for better or worse.

That won't stop them from trying though.

Well, with a super-majority in the Senate and a majority in the House, there can be no more complaining about the Republicans.

You grossly underestimate the spin capacity of the left.

See yall in 10. Democrats are toast

The independents are also hip to how far the party of batshit Bachmann, Limbaugh and Joe the Plumber
has fallen. Can you say 64 senators.

Also from Gallup:

Currently, independents are more likely to view both parties as being too extreme in either direction than to believe they are about right. But more independents say the Democratic Party (38%) than the Republican Party (25%) is about right.

BTW: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

To all you KKKons out there: SORE LOSERSMANS! Aw you whiney little poor babies you! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Imagine if Al Gore dragged this out for THIS long?!?!?! You sorry pathetic braindead psychopathic crackhead FREAK GOPuketard would have gone 3 billion times more nuts THAT Y'ALL ARE ALREADY NOW!!! (In other words, you nutbags would have shot up gods knows how many more doctors at women's clinics, bombed who knows how many gay bars, and whatever other acts of TERRORISTS y'all excel at.) Well, like y'all said in 2000 (regarding an election that WAS stole) I just would like to say back to ya: GET OVER IT! Oh and have a VERY nice day! Try reading some Thomas Paine and LEARNING something. Actually, since most of you who listen to oxyRU$Hilter Blimpo Limpnoodle the drug-addled gas-bag and/or Fux Nukes Nazi "News" are semi-literate at best, get somebody LITERATE to read his works to you. Make sure they take their time and define those BIG words to y'all, ya know, the ones that are more than monosyllabic!
While I'm at it, since y'all KKKons can't man-up and cope with PRESIDENT Obama, I AGAIN say back to ya:
WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?! WHY DO YOU WANT THE TERRORISTS TO WIN?! AMERICA: LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT! HE'S THE PRESIDENT, HOW DARE YOU QUESTION HIM IN A TIME OF WAR!!!

Your attempt and comedy betrays you Tiny. there are alot of people who didnt go to college that have made great and grand contributions to our society:

Richard Branson -Virgin Mobil. No college so he MUST be stupid.

Simon Cowell -Music Mogel.(Music taste not with standing) He has no degree so he MUST be stupid.

Michael Dell- Computer Company CEO. No College so he MUST be stupid.

Frank Lloyd Wright- Achitect. Not even a High School diploma so he MUST be stupid.

Steve Jobs- Inventor & Founder of Apple Computers, No degree but did attend for a couple years and dropped out so he MUST be stupid too.

Bill Gates- CEO/Founder Microsoft as well as Richest man in the world 96-05. College drop out, so He MUST be stupid.

Rachael Ray- No formal training in cooking or college yet a success so she MUST be stupid.

I hope you can see the point "Tiny".

he may not know what socialism means but he is getting a crash course in it.
and the things that you and others have called socialism in the past are things that have worked in many cases along with free enterprise and free market capitalism and to prove that look at the socialist nations which are gainnig economic strength because of thier move away from thier brand of socialism while we move towards thier old ones
my point is that why isnt it okay to have a little balance on some issue
