#3 If Franken doesnt pull this one off he certainly has earned his boni fides for a future in Minnesota Democrat politics. Think about it. A man of little talent, no accomplishment, and a history that put him squarely at odds with his own partys written platform unabashedly performed fellatio on the Unions to secure their nomination. He then was able to funnel large sums of cash from his fellow Hollywood progressives that, in turn, earned him respect from the national Dem Machine Muckity-mucks. And that afforded him some legitimacy to run a campaign that fooled half the rubes into believing that his RINO opponent was Dick Cheney incarnate. Of course, with the specter of defeat staring him in the face he instantly went into a classic Dem run out the clock strategy. Its a pretty basic plan reallylitigation accompanied with feigned concerns that every vote must be counted. After all, its not about himits about the very future of Democracy! And now that the feeble Give em hell Al rallies have been replaced by Lets just get this shit over with, he offers up a completely meaningless and vacant gesture of false benevolence. Hes here to stay all rightkind of like a reoccurring case of the gout.
