Franken wins Minnesota Senate seat in recount
Mon Jan 5, 2009 3:55pm EST
MINNEAPOLIS (Reuters) - Democrat Al Franken beat Republican incumbent Norm Coleman to win the U.S. Senate seat from Minnesota, officials conducting a final recount said on Monday nearly two months after the November 4 election.

The outcome found Franken beat Coleman by 225 votes out of nearly 2.9 million cast but faced a legal challenge. Coleman's aides said in advance that they would pursue a court action, claiming the recount process left out certain absentee votes and that other ballots were counted twice.
Coleman, seeking a second term, held a razor thin lead after the election over Franken, a well known satirist and a former writer and actor for the popular Saturday Night Live television show.

If the recount decision holds up Democrats will control at least 58 of the 100 Senate seats in the new U.S. Congress, with the Illinois seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama still in limbo because of the controversy over corruption charges against Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

Another sign of the Apocalypse .

Cartoons instead of real free thinking human beings end up in the senate.

But then again, proba`bly a good place for that worm, he should fit right in with the rest of those rich, self-absorbed freaks.

Join the celebration or cry alone.

alone ha , with 46 percent of america i am far from alone.

Or do you really think Obamie got 99% of the popular vote.

Is that what the DNC is spouting.

And unlike you I dont cry about stuff like this.

Tell me where to send the tissues.

You keep them your need them more than I do.

But if you would like to drop them off in person that I will arrange.

And you dont even have to leave Rochester The Ski Capital
of the Northeast.

BWAHHHHHHHHHHHH

We wont mention the 600 plus votes that were not counted for coleman.

Yeah every vote counts, as long as its for the Dems

absolutely!

You can't think SLOW SOLDIER could comprehend that do you?

Who did the recounting after the first recount showed Coleman winning walking away?



Hmmmmmmmmmmm?



This is not over. Those 600 absentee ballets, mostly for Coleman, will be allowed to count, as well they should be.

The out of work comedian, who's radio show alsonose dived .... is not stealing this election .... no matter how much money the DNC throws at it.

Where the sun don't shine on ya ...


if you can get them past all the other "tissue" that's up there.

"The fat lady is warming up to sing": Does this mean we'll get to hear RBSer's wife sing...

...or the beasite?

I figured as much, coward.

why would I want to meet someone like you?

To meet an actual Patriot.
To prove you are not a sniveling coward.
To prove for once and all that you are who you say you are.
To meet an actual veteran.
To restore some sense of manhood to your miserble existence.

In hopes that maybe some of the honor and pride I have would rub off on you

And btw you should bring your wife along, so she can meet a real man.

none of those are reasons that I would want to meet you.
you had your chance to prove that all your hot air meant something. all you and your buddies had to do was get together $5,000. if all your bs meant anything; if you actually knew anything you could have made an easy $5,000, but you didn't dare.
why would I want to meet someone like you?
I don't.

Fine. You are the coward, its clear.

RBS'r: "if you actually knew anything you could have made an easy $5,000"

And thanks for finally admiting your are an RBSr a liar and a fraud.

Cool I knew it was just a matter of time.

No, you would have lost and you knew you would have lost. You said that you knew, but you didn't and don't and still don't have the guts - just the little boy whine, dare and run away. You have that down pat.
why would I want to meet the likes of you? I wouldn't without your paying me.
