WVUforREDSKINS Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 What does that make the dems 5 for 5 in Minn. recounts now? BTW, Bill Richardson is withdrawing due to the investigation he is under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiebear Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 At first i thought if he won it would be a travesty of the government. Then as time went on, one day it occured to me. As a NON party person, i would rather have a NON political person win in Every Single race. I don't think it should be a Profession. I don't think you should make MONEY for being a Senator/Congressperson. I may not agree with anything he thinks, but i don't think he'll accept bribes and be a whore to the lobby. I'm okay with this.

The 12th Commandment Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Wow. What a disappointment. In both cases. Though I'm a dem I see Franken as divisive and too far left. As for Richardson (my gov) I suppose in hindsight I'm glad he didn't get the nomination after all. Added: I wouldn't be surprised one bit if, assuming he's found innocent in this deal, Richardson is gunning for a better appointment down the line. He's a fully political animal and I don't see this being the end of him. Sad also that Diane Denish (our second in charge) won't get the office she is a good woman and would've made a fine governor.

Cooked Crack Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Franken's hasn't officially won but it's pretty much over for Coleman. At least Richardson wasn't the SoS nominee. I wonder if he would have backed off if the Blago incident never happened. What a joke. This was a stolen election. How did Franken steal it? Please tell us what you know.

WVUforREDSKINS Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 It is official. It just hasn't been reported yet on CNN or the other sources. boy I'll bet Anne Coulture <--intentional mispell is pissed I know O'Rielly hates the man with a passion. He said that if Franken wins he has lost respect for Minnesota. He hates the man. Therefore, I encourage people to post links so we can all the the reactions from the Hannities, O'Riellys, and Coulter's of the wor...err Murdoch's Mouth.

TrumanB Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 How did Franken steal it? Please tell us what you know. Missing ballots from one of the polling places, duplicate ballots that were allegedely counted, several hundred absentee ballots that weren't counted, etc., etc. We've all seen how dirty and corrupt Democrats can be (see Illinois politics). This thing is going to court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy Burner Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 No, it's not over. Coleman is seeking to have every vote counted and will challenge the results in court. Franken will not be seated in the coming days - Republicans are going to filibuster that move. If the results stand as they are now, it is Gregoire all over again.

mjah Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 LOL at claiming the Democrats are somehow the ones to be called out for election shadiness. Only the tactics differ between the two parties. They're both woven from the same dirty cloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2000 election is over. Al Gore lost - move on! Oh, oh. Sorry. I thought you were a whining 2000 Democrat. Don't worry, after a few years of screaming how it was stolen you will move on....probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
