    "Well, I would say our Democratic friends now have their long-sought 60 votes," McConnell said. "The American people will fully understand that they own the government, the executive branch, the House, and the Senate. And they're waiting to see the results of their programs."


    Having been shut out of the $787 billion stimulus, the $410 billion budget supplement and (in the House) the cap-and-trade-and-tax-and-tax, Senate Republicans will allow Democrats to show what they can do with their 60-seat, filibuster-proof majority.

    Let's see how this turns out. How's it starting?

    As Biden said: “We misread how bad the economy was.”

    They've misread more than that.

    What a joke. Everyone knows its not a true 60th vote. Lieberman isn't even a true democrat and dems don't vote together as often as Republicans do.

    I still can't get over that one. Electing a democrat fine, but Al Franken...unbelievable.

    BTW Yoni, that republican ad is terrible. Why don't they just say, "We ed up so bad you elected this guy".

    I'll agree with you. 30+ percent of the democrats voted against the Civil Rights act of 1964, and less than 20% republicans voted against it.

    Yep, I'd say more republicans vote together.

    Al Franken won the election.

    He's the U.S. Senator from Minnesota.

    He won.

    Deal with it.
    Excuse me if it takes a while to get past the ballot copying fraud.

    LOL @ you thinking I'm black. It's called a sig, the person on it does not actually reflect me.

    Typical white republican though, trying to make minorities think they do something for them while they're actually hunting down Mexicans and leaving blacks to drown in the city squares of New Orleans.

    Look, your party has become what it fears most, a minority. Deal with it.

    I was disenfranchised thanks to all the voter fraud that goes on in that state so it'll take me a while.

    I didn't make that assumption. You assumed I did...

    I was just remembering those numbers as it was a recent topic in another thread.

    Voter fraud is a way of life in Minnesota. It happens every year and nothing is ever really done about it. It stems from the stuff people love like same day registration.

    Can't remember specifics anymore of what happened. Something like 30,000 dead people voted this year though. The nature of it makes it impossible to really prove who's doing it. In an election that was decided by less than 300 votes, with acorn doing its thing too, its a safe bet.

    I also remember they 'found' a whole bunch of ballots for Franken in the back seat of somebody's car in Dinkytown.

    Can you tell me how many actual fraudulent votes that have been attributed to ACORN? I've been asking that question a lot and I never get a number.

    During Thursday's meeting with reporters Ritchie reiterated that cases of felons voting when they shouldn't are still extremely rare, especially in the context of 2.9 million legally cast ballots in the 2008 election.

    He referenced the high profile case of Eric Willems, a convicted sex offender who registered in Roseau County on Election Day in November and voted despite the fact his civil rights won't be fully restored until he's "off paper" -- finished with the community portion of his sentence -- in 2011.

    Willems told the Grand Forks Herald he had no idea he couldn't vote once he left prison, but he pled guilty anyway to voting illegally. His vote still counts -- in his case he voted for former Senator Norm Coleman -- because once the ballot enters the ocean of other anonymous votes it can't be retrieved and cancelled.



    Thanks for proving a case of voter fraud for the Republican candidate!

    By a sex offender, no less!

    So it's just as easy to say the Republicans are guilty of even more voter fraud.

    Of course -- all the Republican fraud was done up front.

    And it was massive.

    I have as much proof as you.
