Al Franken Wins Minnesota Senate Race
Minnesota’s Supreme Court ruled after an eight-month post-election battle that Democrat Al Franken has defeated former Senator Norm Coleman (R) in U.S. Senate race and is entitled to the seat. Coleman conceded at a news conference in St. Paul. Previously, he had urged the justices to throw out a lower court decision that Franken, a former comedian on NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” won the Nov. 4 election by 312 votes. He had voiced concern that about 4,000 absentee ballots that were ruled invalid should be counted.
“We’re pleased,” said White House spokesman Robert Gibbs. He should be since Franken gives Democrats the 60 votes in the Senate needed to overcome any Republican filibuster on legislation. For the first time in many years, the government is controlled by a single "radical" political party that appears bent on transitioning the United States into a socialist system.
It is hard to envision how Minnesota could elected a Franken, a comedian and often crass person, to be their Senator. No thanks Minnesota! The above picture of Al Franken tells everything - it must have been the drunks, perverts and nuts (including ACORN) that voted for this person. And since Franken won, that doesn't say much for Minnesota or for that matter Norm Coleman. See also: Because I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggone it, people (at least in Minnesota) like me!

So how does someone like Al Fraken get elected as a senator. Especially when there are more votes than voters. HMM!!!
You all can thank the Acorn for this absurd strange person to control our country. I hope we have something left in this country by 2010 or 2012. I dare Acorn to show up at my door step. I will gladly show them where my property start by showing them the end. I will NOT be giving them any of my information on my census. I hope most of the other people in this country will do the same.
Charlie,
ACORN, even though they have changed their name, was a major problem. More votes than voters - excuse me!
Althoug I legally would not advocate people not completing their census form, I will note that the fine for not completing all the questions is only $100. Also this fine has not been enforced for many years. I am with you - for me $100 is less than skipping two evenings out with my wife or 1 day at the mall. I will be joining you in this silent protest of the envasion of my home, life & privacy. My own type of Lifelock!
Like Senator Blutarsky for those of you old enough to remember Animal House!
I saw that! Lovely, just lovely!
Bingo, Job!
And the people could protest, but they won't.
Why should they make the effort when they can sit back and laugh at the new Senator
err another dumbocrat..probably another liberal too
Yea, I saw it on the news another crooked democrat in there,just what our Country needs. I wonder how much he owe's in back taxes. Those democrats are ruining our Country.
The people of Minnesota should be embarrassed. HIGHLY embarrassed.
I love him. minnesota is lucky
Another in a long line of examples why liberals are worth less than the dynamite it would take to blow them up.
if you dumb everyone down enough eventually you can get all the liberals elected
First a wrestler.. now a comedian.. who's next.. Prince?
The joke is on America after all.
Very very scary America!
Plumb damn sicken me! This so call man is going to make decision for the people of this country. God help the USA! Thanks to Acorn for their absurd, abuse, and bias bureaucratic system better known as BS. Why?
Sorry to say but that picture says it all where our country is headed!
Another comedian
What the heck is wrong with those people in Minnesota?
Bob
