Al Franken moving into Norm Coleman's office.
Not just the job, but the room:

WASHINGTON, D.C. _ Sen.-elect Al Franken has an election certificate, an office in the Capitol's Hart office building, about 21 staffers and, as of 10:29 a.m. Eastern Time, he had a nameplate.

Witness and recorded by about two dozen media folks, a few moments before 10:30 a.m. James Pogue, a Senate staffer, rolled up in front of Franken's office-to-be pulled the backing off of a sign reading "Senator Al Franken Minnesota" and stuck it to a previously empty, but waiting, spot on the wall.

The last name to grace the wall? Senator Norm Coleman.

1. Normie must be just chewing bullets.
And I am awash in Schadenfreude.

2. I have a friend who works in the same building
She watched with amusement when they scraped off Normie's name and has been anticipating this for months.
