PLEASE QUITE .. ITS OVER. COLEMAN

Who cares anymore? I don't care who is chosen, we Dems have a majority now, sorry Repubs even with Coleman, you guys have less.

Why is it that when Coleman was ahead, he didn't want a recount yet when Al finally gets ahead by a slim margin, Normy changes his mind.

Typical Republicans. There's a reason why you're the minority. We don't like you, so go back to the south.

Maybe we can get the election officials from Zimbabwe to come over and help?

Then again, what is one more comedian in the Senate going to do?

Belle, in MN when an election is so incredibly close a recount is automatically done. Research before you make false charges.

Amazing how Coleman wanted Franken to concede on election night, and suggested that Franken not use the courts. Now when Coleman appears to be on the losing end he wants to use the courts all the time?! Such a hypocrite! Hang in there Al...

Leave Franken, Burris and Kennedy-S. alone! Who are any of you to say who will or won't do a great job? Some of those so-called "seasoned" Senators and Representatives need to be retrained. Some of them have lost sight of whom they are there to serve (thanks Donna Brazile).

I find it real funny that a Republican think he's won and election. Americans came out in full force this past November to say GO HOME TO REPUBLICANS. Please stop wasting America time we have a ton of work to do thanks to your last 8 years.

Why don't we care about a state that actually matters like Deleware or Wisconsin?

I see Senator Cornyn wants to filibuster if Franken is seated. I seem to remember that in the not so distant past the Republicans were totally opposed to filibusters and wanted to be able to over ride if not prevent them. I remember former Senator Bob Dole suggesting that was not a good idea because the Republicans might not always have the majority. What comes around goes around? I think Franken will win fair and square even if it is a close election. Has the NRC heard America, even conservative are sick and tired of the current Republican Party and the last 8 years that has sold this great land down the river to ruin.

They should have used CHADS!
Next year Bush and Gore might be running for something up there.
Tell the court to close the door.It's wasting energy just like this recount.

Oh...this is how an election works....State verifies Coleman as the winner, Frank...does not like the results, asks for recount, finds all kinds of new ballots, accuses opponent of corruption, gets ahead by 50...and the court will decide.

Wonder how many ballots were lost in the recounts.

OMG this election's not over YET? Why can't they just call it for Frankin already. This is Foolish, we have important things to take care of!

It appears a re-vote might have been cleaner and much less troublesome for all concerned. Minnesota sucks

Democracy is not the most efficient system, but it is the best.

DEAL WITH IT!!!

Go Al!

Coleman, you started cheating from day one. You knew that Al won. I remember you wanted Al to give you the election on election night. I remember the dirty tricks you pulled to get the office after Wellstone died. Now, it is time for you to go.

"Klobuchar's statement prompted Cornyn, a Republican from Texas and the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, to threaten a filibuster to block Democrats from seating Franken before an official certificate is signed by Ritchie and Pawlenty."

Why don't all you Republican morons sit down and shut up. You've had 8 years to enrichen yourselves and your friends while you have pillaged our country and damaged our economy, our security, our envioronment and our international standing. If you haven't got it yet, the American public want you and your organ grinder monkey of a president to go away so that the rest of us can constructively deal with the damage. Drop your political games. It's time to stand down and not get in the way of progress.

Franken won, Norm is done!

Can I ask how much longer this is going to go on? Let's just appoint Mickey Mouse to the senate seat! I think Mickey would be a better choice then either of these morons!

When your loosing I guess its time to bring out the GOP Florida paybook. The GOP is so dishonest and greedy that GOP should stand for Greedy Old Party.

come on.... Coleman... accept defeat gracefully and let us get on with the business at hand....

i swear to God, Norm.

Stop complaining and trying to control the situation with your lawyers and frivolity. Let the votes be counted, then shut the hell up and go away ya turncoat Cheney lover.

I support Mr. Frankin, however I do not think he should go to Washington until the election has been certified by the Minnesota Gov and Minn Sec of State. I think Al will come out on top, but the process must be respected.

give all the votes to the elementary school children, let them count them, they will do a good job and get it done.

Count them and get this over with please!!!

Republican-bashing in 3... 2... 1...

What a mess....

We don't know who to trust anymore..........both parties have showed us they will do anything to win.

I care less about whether the winner is Democrat or Republican and care more about ensuring that politicians are not allowed to continue manipulating our election process.

I thought the Democrats were supposed to be the 'count-all-the-votes' party. It would seem Al Franken is afraid of what would happen if they did. Typical Democratic hypocrasy.

Very sad that in this day and age we can't count all votes properly and promptly. African nations have faster results.

We will see if the Minnisota State Supreme Court is as partisan as the Florida State Supreme Court proved it was in 2000 by recounting only democrat stronghold counties as it looks like Al wants to happen.

Come on now! Enough is enough. If Coleman was doing as good a job as he thinks, do you wonder why Franken is in a position to take over the Senatorial position in this great state!!! There are issues that need his (Colemans) attention now.

Clearly neither candidate won. This fiasco must be declared void and a new election taken with only two candidates. If this isn't according to the law, then those laws are stupid. Ineffective laws are repealed all the time.

If Al Franken manages to steal this election he will put Minnesota so far back to the stone age. He’s only in it for a government golden parachute retirement.

Coleman is a pitbull. He will let go, even when Franken is announced as winner. His groupies will find another loophole to present to the courts to further delay the process.

Republicans, please learn when to fold up the tent. In Congress, and during elections, you tend to get stuck in denial too long.

Isn't there a corruption charge against Coleman? If so, why hasn't it been discussed at length on the news? Oh, I know...it's because he's a republican.

make the Senate a total circus.

It seems I heard this somewhere before..
