Agreed. I loved that show.

Man, I'm having an easier time following Battlestar then keeping track of this mess.

...at this point, it's all about keeping the Dems from getting one more vote.

I used to think both were equally douchey (but at least Franken was a douche who had views similar to mine), but it's clear that Coleman is a far bigger douche.

Exactly. His legal challenge is likely funded fully by the GOP to force more concessions in the senate to buy Republican votes.

Lionel Mandrake: it's clear that Coleman is a far bigger douche.

We knew that years ago.

/Minnesotan

Coleman knows he's lost, that's not his game. He's simply trying to drag out the recount process as long as possible in order to make it one vote harder for Democrats to get their 60 votes.

That and he personally hates Franken.

/Minnesotan

I tell you what, let's make a deal: You get Coleman for Senate, and Franken takes Bachman's seat in the House.

Good lord, this is four months now, isn't it...?

Is that longer than the bush/gore thing?

/Was looking forward to the fact that after November people would stop talking about elections!

Brilliant show!

/"I ask you for character references, and you bring me The Invisible Man, Al Capone, Punch and Judy, and Tinkbell?!"

Are there any republicans Fark Independents who wish to provide some sort of argument supporting this dude?

I'm all for owning tanks and M16s while I short the stock market with my privatized social security moneys, but what?

Whaaaaaaat!?

Is this guy even trying to make a case for himself?

Seabon: Coleman knows he's lost, that's not his game. He's simply trying to drag out the recount process as long as possible in order to make it one vote harder for Democrats to get their 60 votes.

Well, and to plant the idea in the heads of dumbasses that Franken is an illegitimate Senator. "Liberal judges put Al Franken in power!"

The thing is, though, that Coleman's appeals and arguments are becoming so transparently desperate that now it looks to even the most casual observer that Franken's the one being victimized here, not Coleman.

Whoever runs against Bachmann next cycle needs to do a mashup of her "anti-American" and "not enough rich people" wharrgarbls and buy up massive amounts of airtime.

Lionel Mandrake: ...at this point, it's all about keeping the Dems from getting one more vote.

No, it's also about reducing the de facto length of Franken's Senate term.

At what point does Coleman show up in Burris's office, claiming to be a ghost executed in a South American country, only to reveal at the end that he may or may not be a senator again?

How about Stabenow. She is without a doubt one of the worst.

I came in to type pretty much exactly that.

AND by muddying up the process Coleman hopes to undermine Franken's mandate and eventual reelection effort by making it easier for pundits to claim "Well, Franken didn't really win the election."

===============================================================

I'm glad to see the courts go to great lengths to make sure the will of the people is fairly determined, but there really needs to be a reasonable limit set.

Seriously, WTF Minnesota?

Sorry, I was confused. But getting rid of stupid politicians on either side is good.

I think we should all applaud Norm Coleman, he is a patriot.

He is making himself look like a huge a-hole just to prevent the country from having giant douchebag like Al Franken in the Senate.


Keep it up Norm!

I'm calling the Minnesota secretary of state office on Monday and requesting that the election results be certified in order to put an end to this ridiculously drawn out and undignified process.

Phil Herup: I think we should all applaud Norm Coleman, he is a patriot.

based on your posts here and in the budget deficit thread I've concluded you are nothing but an obvious troll.

Welcome to my ignore list.

Republicans 2000: Gore is a crybaby because he wants 1 recount even though it say he can. And he is a crybaby if he takes it to court!

Republicans 2009: We need as many recounts and court appeals until our guy wins.


Republicans have standards!! In fact they have two sets of them!

Why blame Coleman for trying to stop Franken from stealing the election?
Coieman won by 2700+ votes, then Franken demands a recount (conducted by an obviously partisan gang of fellow douchebags) who count and count with no uniformity in the process until Franken appears to eek out a minor victory with barely 200 votes (won only by selectively disqualifying batches of votes that would clearly favor Coleman), then it suddenly stops.

I applaud Coleman for calling bullshiat on Frankens scam to steal the election from him.
Many of Colemans votes were disqualified for specific reasons that didnt apply to Franken votes.
Franken selectively had votes thrown out only if they were from districts that Coleman would obviously win.
Franken only wants he votes from inner cities to count while rural areas are disqualified.
Franken even managed to get some inner city votes counted twice...and some of you farkers actualy think that disenfranchising rural voters and over-enfranchising inner city frankenbot voters is a fair democracy?!?

I have faith that in the end Coleman will manage to get democracy to prevail and will be able to rightfully reclaim his senate seat and Franken will go back to where he belongs, back with the liberal new york elite crew writing bad scripts for saturday night live.

I just think its even more pathetic that all of you Franken supporters are standing behind his obvious attempt to pervert democracy and call Coleman names for trying to make sure each vote is fairly counted.

Alternately we could just go with the election night total and the first couple of recounts before Al Franken tried to sue his way to victory with a canvasing board that favored him.

So when do you say that the results from one county showing more votes than voters are invalid but the results from another county showing more votes than voters are valid? When deciding how many votes to take from Coleman and give to Franken.

So a troll is someone who has a different opinion than you and you can't handle that. Got it.

/Liberals are all for dissenting opinions as long they agree with them.

randomjsa: Alternately we could just go with the election night total and the first couple of recounts before Al Franken tried to sue his way to victory with a canvasing board that favored him.

1. Election night totals are before all the votes were counted. Most absentee ballots and all provisional ballots aren't counted on election night.

2. There weren't a couple of recounts, there was exactly one.

3. There's more Republicans on the canvassing board than Democrats.

So when do you say that the results from one county showing more votes than voters are invalid but the results from another county showing more votes than voters are valid? When deciding how many votes to take from Coleman and give to Franken.

Not a single precinct, anywhere in the state, had more votes than voters.

Dammit. just when you managed to lose five pounds from your butt.

the_vegetarian_cannibal

Seriously wtf minnesota?

You must not have seen the other guy.

Franken just may successfully steal this election.

winterwhile: Send in ACORN... they have 2 Billion of Taxpayer Pork Money to spend why not on another rigged election?

You are so farking gullible. ACORN DOES NOT have $2 billion in taxpayer money. It doesn't even have $1 billion. Not $500 million. Not $100 million. Not $50 million.

Why do you so consistently lie?

Triaxis: Franken just may successfully steal this election.

It is awfully hard to steal something that you legitimately won. And Franken legitimately won the Minnesota election.

Phil Herup: /Liberals are all for dissenting opinions as long they agree with them.

They're kind of like conservatives in that regard. Just not as bad.

eraser8: Why do you so consistently lie?

Because it's fun to troll.

It's telling that the only people defending Coleman on this thread are half-hearted trolls.

Wow, if Franken's and Coleman's roles were reversed, right-wing radio would be going crazy. Rush would coming up with all sorts of 'Election Watch' themes around it and harping on it every single day. These goons:



or their proteges would make another appearance, probably trying to bust in like they did in Florida. But since the GOP knows they're in an extremely weak PR position, they're just trying to stretch it out as long as possible without further damaging the national image.

Kind of shows you how anemic the Democrats and their supporters are when given the upper hand.

what_now: I tell you what, let's make a deal: You get Coleman for Senate, and Franken takes Bachman's seat in the House.

No. Bachman is harmless where she is.

No, I disagree. I do not think you will see too many conservative Farkers putting liberals on "ignore" here. That was my point. Whiny libs here frequently threaten to put people on ignore b/c they do not like the stuff they say. It's kinda sad.

Coleman: I demand that all those votes be counted!

Franken: No problem.

State: Okay, Franken's up another 176 votes.

Coleman: I demand that all those votes be uncounted!

It's not hard to see what's going on here. The repugnitards are being whinyass little blowholes sobbing frantically that their guy lost, and now they're going to have to deal with the fact that the WILL OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE has decreed an unstoppable Democratic majority.

Actually, Phil, I have you favorited, so that I an quickly see the douchebag shiat you and your ilk spew. Because for entertainment value, there is nothing funnier than a repubitard douchebag. Please post more often.

Surely. I never figured you for one of those namby-pamby libs anyway. Your inner retard is uncrackable. I admire that.

hillarymom44: Coieman won by 2700+ votes, then Franken demands a recount

You do realize that it is Minnesota law to have a recount when the elections are that close right?

randomjsa: first couple of recounts

So, how many recounts happened?

Well here's the thing, my dear Phil: I am a veteran. I supported the invasion of Iraq (let's just omit the long discussion; it's done, now we have to deal with the mess dubya made of it.) I have lots of opinions you would most likely agree with. The difference is, I am not an idiot.

Namby-pamby? Yeah, that would be a no. And there lies the problem, my dear Phil. Just because people know that you are a dumbass does not make them a namby-pamby. It makes them smarter than you. Which is a very low threshold.

Shall we continue to trade insults or do you have actual arguments to present?

hillarymom44: conducted by an obviously partisan gang of fellow douchebags

You're right. The canvassing board was dominated by Republicans! Only 1 Democrat was appointed.
