About Gore. Absolutely. He drug that out waaay too long and was pathetic.

But what would Franken whine about? He won. Coleman was the whiner.

You are a grade-A dumba$$! After election noght 2008, Coleman won re-election by a slim margin. Franken whined like only he can, got himself a recount and wouldn't you know, they found missing ballots in somebody's car. To the shock of no one, these phantom ballots were all for Franken.

Conclusion: Coleman won on election night, Franken won on a recount. Dummy!!!

What does a mandatory recount mean, dumb***?

And you don't win on election night. You win after the votes are certified, dumb***.

This usually takes a fee weeks, dumb***.

What does finding ballots that should never have been counted in somebody's car mean? It means Franken stole the election. Dumba$$!

Respectfully sir, it means you're full of ****. dumb***.

Quote:Reichert is all too happy to provide an explanation. She says the “car ballot” story is “just not true,” painting a picture of normal balloting procedures twisted into something grotesquely misleading.

The “car ballot” story emerged Saturday from the mouth of Coleman lawyer Fritz Knaak, who, according to AP, told reporters, “We were actually told ballots had been riding around in her car for several days, which raised all kinds of integrity questions.”

Knaak never provided a source and did not return two MinnPost calls for comment. However, he was already backing off his story at the same press event. As that day’s Pioneer Press noted, “Knaak said he feels assured that what was going on with the 32 ballots was neither wrong nor unfair.”

Still, the lie that won’t die is that Reichert toted around ballots like an empty McDonald’s bag thrown into the back seat.

Before getting into the details, she makes three fundamental points:

1. The ballots were never in her car.

2. The ballots were never in anyone’s car for several days.

3. The ballots were never lost or forgotten, and spent Election Night until counting day in secure city facilities.

I wasn't talking to Chris.

The bolded part suggests otherwise.

Yet another assumption...why would I come here to talk to Chris McDaniel? I'm sure his email works just fine.

Playing coy is only cool so many times in one conversation.

Its what Drew does, he can no more help himself than any of Gods other creatures for being what they are.

About Gore. Absolutely. He drug that out waaay too long and was pathetic.

But what would Franken whine about? He won. Coleman was the whiner.

1. I don't think I have ever heard of another Gore-supporter (in 2000) admit that about Gore.

2. I wasn't closely focused on the Franken/Coleman deal, but my memory of it is that neither man was really "whining", it just took a long time to sort out an astonishingly close race. There was another US Senate race like that in New Hampshire in the 1970s in which the Senate was unable to decide which candidate to seat, and so the state (NH) simply held a do-over election in mid-September, more than 10 months after the original election. Campaigns in New Hampshire are relatively inexpensive; I wonder if candidates in a large state like Florida or Ohio would agree to do something like that.

I voted for Gore, but he just got downright embarrassing the more he went on. Of course, at that time I didn't know what Bush was going to do in Iraq...so...

Sadly, I was actually glad in the brief aftermath after 9/11 that Bush was president instead of Gore. But that was back when I bought into the meme that Republicans were the party of defense. Boy was I wrong about that!

Is that a picture of the Technology Center? It looks like a nice facility.

Yes, it's a lot better than their downtown campus, it looks like a prison.



The Smith Center was new so we actually had brand new computers and small class sizes.

The Tech Center kinda looks like our Technology Center...

lol, I was thinking to myself "damn, where did a CC get the budget for that"

We had to get Maxine Smith and the State involved just to get the funding.

That's really nice for a CC...a lot of folks underesimate CCs.

I'm glad my classes were at the Smith center. Students at the Union ave campus had 4 year old computers and were still learning XP. We had new computers, small class size, smart labs, and we used Windows 7/Linux...they also made sure we graduated with a Cisco Cert.

if anything, it makes the illegitimate remains of the tea party* look like sh!t.

*see my earlier rant about what currently passes for the tea party upstream in this thread.

The Tea Party is a state of mind.

How can there be an ‘official’ of a grass roots set of passionate people that has no real organization?

ask the guys that claim to represent the tea party, and who collect millions of dollars in their name.

My problem with the tea party is a matter of function. They're too often unreasonably obstinate.

I like getting Republicans elected. I'd like to see conservatives get elected to national office. Making everything a war of ideological purity isn't going to advance anything good. The party has to return to being a "big tent". Gays, Latinos, moderates, and women need to feel comfortable in the party. Being pale, male, and stale isn't going to work in the long term.

The tea party is known nationally as a bunch of homophobic, racist, gun-toting, nutcases. Whether correct or not, this image doesn't help anyone except Democrats

Nothing new... anywhere?
