MN Sen Recount (UPDATE: Stuart Smalley certified winner, lawsuit forthcoming)

[Ban my account ffs!]

At this point I'm really tired of all this.  I don't really care who wins anymore.  I'm losing respect for Franken here...

the only thing that keeps me behind Franken is my intense hatred for Chameleon Coleman.

Maybe if Coleman ends up losing this he'll move back to his home state of New York, switch parties (again), and run for Hillary's seat.

While not official, Al Franken will almost certainly be the next senator from Minnesota.  He is ahead by 226 with the last vote counted.

There will be court challenges, but I don't think it will change much.

It's truly a great day for Minnesota to see Chameleon Coleman booted out of office.

Norm's plea for counting an additional 600+ absentee ballots he alleges were wrongly rejected (that happen to be from strong Coleman areas) was rejected this morning.

The canvassing board will certify Al Franken the winner this afternoon and Coleman will then file a suit challenging the results... but his two main arguments still wouldn't be enough to put him ahead.

Norm Coleman is beginning to sound more and more like Hillary Clinton this past May.
