		<description>As far as I&#039;m concerned, it doesn&#039;t matter if it was Coleman or Franken, until the courts rule on it there should be no winner of the contest.  I said this back when Election night results showed Coleman winning and I still say it.</description>

		<description>Minnesota seems to have quite a few kooks methinks.  Maybe the &quot;Independent&quot; is not representative of the entire state populace.

Karen definitely needs meds.   Cornyn is not &quot;dictating to&quot; the State of Minnesota.  His role is in the US Senate and that&#039;s where remarks refer to.

I love the &quot;how much of the free Obama stuff have we missed&quot; blather.  Where does the &quot;stimulus $$$&quot; that went elsewhere come from?   Check your paycheck.  Who better to decide what your family needs... Washington or you?  

This isn&#039;t difficult folks.

Obama and his cronies, as every previous administration, only want to solidify their power with your money.  They line their future job prospects with influence and favors bought with your wages.   Still think you voted for &quot;change&quot;?</description>

		<description>I wish Lincoln had let the South secede.  The South is a nice place to visit, but I prefer the South weren&#039;t part of our nation.  We&#039;d have a much more progressive country today if the South had been allowed to secede.</description>

		<description>The repiglicans are providing the Minnesota DFL with a veritable cornucopia of campaign ammunition for upcoming elections.  

These GOP phonies seem to believe that budget busting is fine if you are a whining right-winger, but a problem if you are a Democrat.  This election &quot;recount&quot; is a costly mess for the State of Minnesota, courtesy of the so-called &quot;party of states rights&quot; (which now has decided to drag this recount in front of the United States Supreme Court if Normie doesn&#039;t get his way).  

Americans didn&#039;t elect a bunch of dirt-scratchin&#039; southern hillbillies like Jindal, Sanford and Cornyn to decide who is seated in the United States Senate.  It&#039;s time for the Court system to kick some borderline-IQ ass and send these hicks a message.</description>

		<description>When Supreme Court RULED on Bush v Gore — THEY RULED THE CASE was a law UNTO ITSELF. And as SUCH, the CASE could NEVER be used as “precedent” IN ANY OTHER election litigation.

MINNESOTA FOR MINNESOTANS. Our courts should decide OUR FATE — not the GOP
===========================
I agree with you here on the first part since that&#039;s a fact. The SCOTUS specifically said this case could not be used as precedent. 

However the PRINCIPLES of constitutional rights for things like equal protection are at a federal level and do not require precedence.</description>

		<description>Karen Lee besides needing some serious medication there are some holes in your posts.

&quot;GOOD LUCK IN THE MID-YEAR elections, guys! You have given every race a new message: VOTE FOR FREEDOM and the RIGHT TO CHOOSE. VOTE DEMOCRATIC.&quot;
================
Democrats are voting our freedoms away for &quot;rights&quot; aka entitlements that were never intended. Just illegal immigration and liberal policies alone shows they care more about votes than americans. For example you will have the &quot;right&quot; to &quot;free&quot; medical care but you won&#039;t have any say in treatments, doctors, etc. You think HMOs are bad? Just wait.

&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;The GOP will never get another candidate elected in Minnesota if it DOES NOT STOP hindering the state’s election process. HOW MUCH HAS MINNESOTA already LOST during the greatest financial ARMAGEDDON in our nation’s history? HOW much of the stimulus $$$ WENT elsewhere — because TWO senators were NOT working FOR THE STATE?&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;
=======================
Why when democrats sue election contests is it &quot;counting all the votes and helping disenfranchised voters&quot; yet when republicans do it is a liability? There are several significant inconsistencies in Minnesota elections. Also I hate to break it to you but the &quot;stimulus&quot; is like being broke but saying you&#039;re not because you have available limit on your credit card.

&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;ALL THE GOP/Coleman cabal NEEDS is a MASK &amp; GUN to be seen as WHAT THEY ARE: HIGHWAY ROBBERS with no social conscience.&quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;

Bush&#039;s fiscal irresponsibility could earn him and some RINOs this label but Obama and liberal democrats have quickly taken the title with 3 short months. The Obama budget is a fiscal disaster and a dishonest accounting of it at that.</description>

		<description>Franken and Coleman both are clowns. I voted for third one and predicted this circus in future. Looks like we save tax payers money at least couple month.</description>

		<description>When Roland Burris tried to be seated. They said no way. Then someone read the US Constituition Article 1 Section 3 &amp; 5. It says nothing about a election certificate. Also Powell vs McCormack. Went to US Supreme Court. The Decision seated Adam Clayton Powell. This has more bearing on the case than Bush vs Gore.</description>
