They should vote for the Independent. Coleman voted for the bailout and Franken is a joke.

I’ve pretty much decided to do exactly that. Norm lost me when he voted for the bailout, and Franken is nothing more than an over-educated bully.

Okay guys. Go right ahead. And enjoy Senator Franken.

I would sooner vote for Caligula’s horse than for a chump like Franken.

Franken in the Senate could work to the GOP’s advantage. Eventually he could be a symbol of the Democrat party and all that is wrong with it.

If that didn’t work for Pelosi, Reid, “Cold Cash” Jefferson or any of the other extremist bumblers, I doubt that Franken would poison the well any further.

So how is Texas this time of year?

lorien1973 on October 10, 2008 at 1:30 PM

From my point of view there isn’t one Obama sign in the yards and plenty of McCain ones. No “game over, man”.

You wouldn’t fit in. It’s a Texan thing.

In the Hill Country it is awesome right now! And still warm enough to take a dip in the San Marcos River, which is 72 degrees year round.

Of course they want him to lose. He is an embarassing human who has to deal with tax issues whether he is elected or not.

But, thanks to that incompetent Norm Coleman, the Dems will be stuck with Franken anyway.

But we’re down 10 points and we’re almost at the 2 minute warning and Lady Luck has hammered Wall St. in order to deprive our side of doing any good.

Read history. One Minnesotan came back from way behind in ‘68, in the last month, and almost beat Nixon at the end. Mac is only down 6 in the aggregate. All he needs is to get it down to +2-4 Obama on election day and we can at least go to the polls hoping for the best. As to MN, if the state does go for Obama and Franken, it’ll be a landslide in the state legislature (many legis races were decided by under 4% in 06) and the Dems will have complete control of the state. They tried to increase the income take to 9+.

I think this, even more than an Obama victory, will be the bitterest pill to swallow on election night.

I am going to be swallowing a bottle of a different kind of pill if/when Franken gets elected. Voters are welcoming America haters with open arms and its sickening.

Look at the still for the video. There’s something just plain odd about the juxtapositioning Todd and Buchanan laughing over Franken with the lower-third capiton “World Markets Plunge.”
