After this he will go to the Supreme Court of the United States and then the Gov will not be available to sign whatever must be signed so that Franken will never be a Senator and the little boy Repubs will sit in the corner and pout until the next election. The Dems will roll over for the Repubs like they did the entire time “W” was in office. You think the Repubs would let a Democrat get away with this???? NO WAY!!! Repubs….classy, moral values??????? JOKE….”W”’s smutty smell, along with all his cronies is still alive and well.

Oh, it’s lovely. How screwed is Norm? They’ve yet to find a single law expert who says he has a chance. In fact, most are thinking the SC will find unanimously for Franken.

WHY haven’t they RULED yet? What’s taking so long?

I know they have to go through all the documentation of the previous activities, but they’ve had WEEKS already to review it! We all KNOW what they will rule! Let’s just get ON with it!

Sorry, I get carried away sometimes. I’m ready for MN to have its second Senator, and Normie is just chubbing (a term I learned from Texas recently)!

Go Team Franken!

Not that fairness is the GOP’s concern at any time.

didja all hear about the Repub congressman’s statement issued this am complaining that “the UAW” was unfairly treated better than the GM investors?

Sigh.

Morning, PW et al.

Re Norm’s statement on judges - I have a suggestion for a vacation cruise to recuperate from learning he has NOT been re-elected:

Once Al gets certified and takes his rightful senate seat, do we get to sequester a freshman GOP senator away from DC for half a year? Fair is fair.

I’m just wondering… what happens if for some unforeseeable reason, the 4400 ballots get counted and Franken still wins, and, inevitably, Norm still won’t concede, and tries some other argument (such as the statistical one his team has made on ocasion) on for size? (and Pawlenty,’cause he works for Party Chairman Rush, still won’t issue the certificate).. I’m just sayin’ that expecting these people to be reasonable doesn’t seem like a winning proposition to me.

Oh, by the way, lookee what Norm had to say about the Supreme Court nomination process, in his capacity as ex-Senator and professional sore loser:

“Are they intellectually competent, do they have a record of integrity, and most importantly, are they committed to following the Constitution rather than creating new law and policy. When I am re-elected, I intend to review Judge Sotomayor’s record using this process.”

Ummm….
