Kewl, thanks.
Even if she wins, the nutjobs are now on notice.
Looks like Coleman stays....

Former Democrat turned Republican. IMO Coleman >>> Franken. Franken strikes me as a first class *8==>*. And the fact that this senate race is as close as it is this year in a typically conservative Democrat state like MN tells me I'm not alone. |

I never thought Coleman was overly tooly.
I saw Pawlenty on one of the talking head shows last night, seemed bright, funny and quite competent.
Hopefully, that's the Republican party of the future.

Like I mentioned, MN is a conservative state that votes Democrat. A lot. It's how folks like Coleman and Pawlenty succeed. I like Pawlenty. The rest of the country would've liked him too but Palin was the rock star the base needed.  |

Hmmmm, Josephine up to 6 a while ago, now back down to 4. Could the dam be breaking? Franken also moved to tie.
In bad news, one of the two pieces of *feces* running for Gubinatah here won.

This election will be bittersweet for a lot of Californians as Proposition 8 looks like it's going to pass. *goshdarn* Mormans.

Walp, looks like we have Josephine to laugh at for a couple more years.
She should probably start looking under her bed for all those Anti-American Americans coming into Washington.
Good to see Keith Ellison will get to take the oath of office on Thomas Jefferson's Koran again...

If you ever need an example (if Ventura wasn't enough) of how odd we are*, these two districts are prime examples. Ellison CRUSHES and Bachmann wins while being, well, Bachmann. *But mainly this speaks to creative districting in D.C.  |

No *feces*! How odd was that?? I would have lost the farm on that bet. |
