[Posteritatis]

3. I think his concession has nothing to do with him. the GOP is footing the bill for him to stay in an

and take this to the supreme court. or at least keep Franken from being seated for as long as possible. I think this whole charade has NOTHING to do with personal wishes or personality. It is a GOP tactic.

4. Did something happen?

If it didn't have anything to do with Farah Fawcett or Michael Jackson, no one is talking about it.

Minnesota still waiting for Senate victor
Published: June 25, 2009 at 7:07 PM


The Minnesota Supreme Court left Norman Coleman, Al Franken and the citizens of Minnesota in limbo Thursday without a ruling on the U.S. Senate race.

The court, which normally issues opinions on Thursday, heard arguments in the dispute three weeks ago. The close election was almost eight months ago, and Minnesota has had only one senator since January, when Republican Norm Coleman's term expired.

For both sides, the strain is beginning to tell, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune said.

"I think everyone's on the edge of their seat," said Jess McIntosh, a spokesman for Al Franken, the Democratic candidate, who was ahead by a whisker when the case went to the high court. "Al's never too far away from the phone at any given moment because it could happen any time."

Tom Erickson, a Coleman aide, said when he leaves him at the airport he fears the ruling will come as soon as Coleman is airborne.

"I'm afraid to even go to a movie," Erickson said.

Coleman has taken a new job, working for the Republican Jewish Coalition. Franken's staff said the former "Saturday Night Live" star spends a lot of time reading briefing books and studying Senate rules.

[tularetom]

6. What you mean "NOW" Kemo Sabe?

Did the supreme court of MN get of their ass and decide something?

Or are you referring to hiding the concession under all the grisly death news that's taking place?

[JackRiddler]

11. Grisly? Natural causes are grisly?

[tularetom]

12. The reaction of the American news media to celebrity deaths is grisly

I'll have to see your badge from the grammar police.

[ColbertWatcher]

[WI_DEM]

8. Did the MN Supreme Court make a decision?

[opihimoimoi]

9. Me thinks the OP is saying Coleman could concede and no one would know..The MJ threads

the final ruling might not come until November or December of 2009....and by then who know what will happen with a 5 to 4 conservative republican majority on the Court?

[ColbertWatcher]

21. Is that why the GOP are delaying Sotomayor's hearings? n/t
