Former U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman says investigations into felons voting illegally in the 2008 election won't cause him to try to change the outcome.

Coleman lost his Senate seat to Democrat Al Franken after a recount and court contest that lasted eight months.

On Wednesday, the Republican said there will always be "a cloud of doubt" and the allegations add to that, but he hasn't sought legal advice on his options and doesn't intend to.

Prosecutors in Minnesota's biggest counties are investigating a conservative watchdog group's allegations that ineligible felons voted or registered to vote illegally in 2008.

John McCain is the High Priest of RINOism.

Unfortunately, the VERY SAME PEOPLE IN ARIZONA who SUPPORT the anti-illegal alien law Arizona enacted, appear to be on the point of re-nominating this ass in a RINO carcass.

Pathetic isn’t it?

Maybe we can get Obama to campaign for him. Based on past experience, that MIGHT make him loose.

This can in part be placed at the feet of Sarah Palin, who in a misplaced sense of loyalty, campaigned for this rat.
