Maybe he got the instructions from gwb and intends to sue, sue, sue until he exceeds the wishes of the voters?!?!?!?!??!??!?!?!??!

In a statement given to Election Central, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has called upon Norm Coleman to concede defeat in the Minnesota Senate race. Reid also reminded Coleman of his own calls early on in this process for Franken to concede and not waste taxpayer time and money:

I believe that tomorrow the bipartisan state canvassing board will certify Al Franken the winner. After all, early on Senator Coleman criticized Al Franken for wanting a recount and wasting taxpayer money. I would hope now that it is clear he lost, that Senator Coleman follow his own advice and not subject the people of Minnesota to a costly legal battle.

One major caveat: Even if Reid wants to get Franken seated immediately, there will almost certainly be a filibuster from the GOP against it, while Coleman pursues his expected legal challenges. And the reality is that there isn't really anything Reid can do to force the desired outcome if the Republican caucus stays united.

Just counting the votes is enough for Democrats. Obfuscating the truth of them is certainly a well demonstrated conservative endeavor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder why Reid didn't say the same to Franken after the other two recounts......when you have four counts and three say Coleman won and one says Franken won, why does the guy with the least number of wins become the winner?......

Its just another page out of the Dims playbook, recount until you win. During each recount mutilate some of the ballots that have votes for the Republican and have them discarded. After enough recounts the dim will win. It was perfected by Democrat attorney Tim Downs back in 1980.

and these same Dems who said Gov Palin did not have enough experience for VP have no problem with the zero experience of Al and Ms Kennedy

All that matters is POWER - nothing else matters
