This is not a good situation... never is. Doesn't matter which party has control.

I am gravely concerned about the path this nation is taking. Al Franken is just the latest dregs in a currently bitter national cup.

Looks like I got out of Minnestoa just in time. I spent 10 years up there till spring of '08, and it was a really nice place to live, its too bad. Ventura wasn't all that he was cracked up to be, but we finally got the carry license through in '03.

I think many people really thought that ousting one party and electing the other would help. Instead of looking at the candidates themselves, too many voters looked for the letter in front of each candidates name.
I refuse to call myself a Dem or a Repub. I vote based on the candidates values and stand on issues. I couldn't care less if they have a big R or D.

I'm with you. The extremes of both parties both scare me and piss me off.

So now, after 6 years of big-government Republicans being in complete control, we will have at least 2 years of big-government Democrats being in complete control. Both of them frantically trying to out spend and out liberal the other.

Ah, but the winds of change may be blowing. More and more people see what is going on and are getting fed up.

I sure hope so. "We The People" have been asleep at the wheel for the better part of 100 years.

It's embarrassing, I live in Minnesota and can't answer that question. My friends and I have lost faith in the election process. The Libs are clinging to power by whatever means are necessary. When the state initiated the automatic recount I told my wife "the fix is in!"
Sadly I was correct, sorry guys...

I am seriously thinking of changing my User Name now......
On behalf of all Minnesotans who believe in the basic values in life, I apologize for sending yet another clown to Congress.

Ah Hell!
We've sent Murray there two times already and likely will for a third.
And Cant(vote)well now twice also?
So you've got no corner on the market for moron voters, believe me!
As to the song stylings employed during the runoff/court case? See Washington states governors race (Rossi v. Gregoire). There too, state run re,re,re,recount till POOF!
"Instant win". This is what I was talking about when I said last year "the Chicago Way".

He wasn't very funny when he was on SNL and I'm sure that he not going to give us anything to laugh about now.

I guess I was asleep at the wheel for the last 6 years of Republicans in complete control. I thought Harry Reid took over in 2007 from Bill Frist. And that Frist had taken over from Tom Daschle in 2003.
Let's see, 2007 minus 2003, that must be about 6. Okay, I got it now. It's the new math, Obama economy, everything has to be multiplied.
I don't like complete power in any political party but especially not one that can spend money like these guys.

Eh. I rather like Franken. I usually but his books from the salvage bin at the Dollar Tree. They're amusing enough. Sending people like Franken to Washington might just stir things up a bit.

I think we should be sending our condolences to all of the members from Minnesota. They have just elected a really poor comedian, one who could not make it on Sat. Night Live or talk radio to the "Worlds Greatest Deliberative Body". This is a man (?) whose only distinguishing personality trait is a really foul temper.
If you were from Minnesota you would have to spend the next 6 years denying that you voted for the creep.
Senators with any personal integrity would resign rather then be associated with him, although if you can stand being in the same room with T. Kennedy you standards can't amount to much.
And then there's Boxer & Reid & ........... Maybe Franken isn't out of place after all .......
