I wouldn't mind a federal law that says any state result less than 1000 votes requires an automatic re-vote with careful scrutiny and oversight. Would have been a much better solution in Florida in 2000 and Minnesota now. But we have to stick to the current rules and precedents that apply to today's elections.

Just want the MN thing to be over with, what a sideshow.

Whatever Rat.

Your side says Coleman stole it and my side says Franken stole it.

Until the magical recount, the election was Coleman's by a handy lead. But, miracle of miracles, Franken get enough to take a couple hundred point lead, blocks the recount of 4000 votes and wants a seat. I wonder what such a dirty tainted "victory" tastes like. HMMM... is the Sec of State of MN one that is sponsored by project SOS?

As far as POTUS election, I have no probs with result. I do not like the winner, but it was probably a large enough win, the illegal votes and voters ACORN registered did not make the difference in the election.

As far as Ted Stevens, go ahead and gloat. Your side is on the wrong side of an investigation again and managed to taint the election just enough through false accusations.

By hook or by crook is how I see that side of the aisle. They don't care about rules or law, only winning at any cost.

Truly despicable.
