How’d the Iron Range vote on Franken/Coleman ?

Unknown-- but I can guess. LOT of union influence up there.

[reagan_fanatic]

It boggles the mind that a bottom-feeding, classless turd like Franken could come this close to winning a senate seat.

What the hell is wrong with you people in MN?

[synbad600]

I want this "man" in charge of my health care?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Wow, looks like 50% of Minnesotans are just as dumb as the 52% that voted for Buttcrack Hussein.

[ajwharton]

The will continue to recount until Franken is ahead and then declare the counting to be over. It was Gore’s plan and only the Supreme Court could stop it.

[KansasGirl]

I didn’t think this election could disgust me more. I was wrong.

[Migraine]

Where was that idiot Jesse Ventura from again?

Moonesota?

[Married with Children]

I guess he was smart enough and doggonit people like him but I guess he wasn’t good enough.

Dude (or Dudette)! You're from Illinois!

People in glass houses and all of that. Just because our loons tend to be loonier, and yours tend to be more crooked doesn't mean we should start calling names. ;-)

[Migraine]

only half of Minnesotans must be complete morons-- and they seem to be mostly concentrated in the population centers

When I've looked at the red/blue voting maps, I've always thought the population centers sort of resembled pinPRICKS.

[reagan_fanatic]

Well, yea, but our politicians have ALWAYS been morons ;)

[NonValueAdded]

He is deficient in a lot more ways than just vote tally. :)

“In 1948, Lydon B. Johnson did the same in Texas - finding “lost” ballots for the Senate race. He was then called Lying Johnson.”

Actually, regarding Lyndon Johnson’s “win,” I recall there being questions about dead people voting; and there was no recount because the ballots were burned in a warehouse fire. After that, he was called “Lucky Lyndon.”

Start looking for ballot boxes in Democrats’ car trunks...

Indeed!

For me, life is good. I drive an hour down to the Twin Cities, work in "San Francisco lite" and head home to relative normalcy at the end of the day.

[dartuser]

They will find a bag of uncounted ballots.

[nufsed]

I’m sure Franken can find a couple a hundred more votes. Did anyone look under the table in Duluth?

[Funee Kat]

Wait till the democrats get ahold of the 2010 census. Blue state electoral votes will increase exponentially, and gone will be the media push to end the electoral college.

...hey, maybe they'll find more of the MacDougalds' Guaranty/Whitewater papers there, too!
