Unreal.

If as first you don’t succeed, recount and recount again till you do.

It’s amazing to watch the Dems do this every election cycle. Statistically one would think that one of these recounts would at some point favor the Republican.

Strangely they all favor the Democrats — especially when missing ballots turn up. Hilarious.

The only one who thinks he has a lead is Franken, and that is by 22 votes. Everyone else agrees Coleman’s lead has actually increased since the recount started. I guess maybe Coleman should concede so Al can take his Senate seat.

Lovely. Now the Dems take MN.

Every close race has somehow ended up as Dem victory: OR, AK, now MN.

Only a revote in GA saved Chambliss.

I always ask people who say Bush was not legal elected, just when Gore was ahead in the Florida vote count? They all swear that he was, but of course, that never happened.

They wouldn’t know. Franken is the one that knows the fix is in. I’m sure they’re scheduled to find more “votes” for Franken in the refrigerator, just enough to put him over the top.

That state should be embarrassed not only because their process seems to be very bad...but also that Franken was even close enough for a recount.

Al Franken’s campaign claims it now holds a 22-vote lead in the U.S. Senate race

It's sort of like a "shadow government." A "shadow election"—a replica of the real one, but arranged the way you'd like it to be. He can dream, can't he?

At least the Brits don't claim the "shadow" is the real thing.

Recount, recount, recount until your guy magically has a lead then “STOP!! WE WON”

Right out of the Dem’s playbook.

“He is so full of crap. He has no lead”

This is all about throwing up enough doubt so as to offer cover for the Senate to seat him rather than Coleman.

Odds are on their side...even if they have to cheat to put them there...remember their rally cry is “the ends justify the means”......

It appears that all the psychotherapy for co-dependency, etc has paid off.

Franken creates his own vote count showing him ahead so he can get the U.S. Senate to decide the election. I don’t think he’ll get away with this.
