Her is a simple test for all, who would you say this vote is for????
A- Dean Barkley
B- Norm Coleman
C- Al Franken.
If you chose B it proves you are smarter than the average Democrat especially the Al Franken Crowd.

It looks to me like this person was trying to scribble out Norm Coleman from even being an option. Just kidding twotap.

Where did you get this Two Tap? Is this example meant to represent a larger problem with the recount in Minnesota, or is just another piece of info pulled out of you butt to be taken wildly out of context? From what I've heard, there haven't been any substantiated claims of mischief from either side. What is your source?

My butt By the way if this happened in palm beach county it would have meant 3 votes for Franken.
One challenge headed to the state so far in Plymouth

The bubble beside Norm Coleman’s name appeared to have both an X and a squiggle in it, but the Al Franken campaign wants the state Canvassing Board to rule on whether it should count. That’s the only challenge in the special envelope in Plymouth so far, according to Sandy Engdahl, the city clerk and the official running the city recount.
The Canada geese milling on the grounds and parking lot of Plymouth City Hall were oblivious to the gaggle of election officials and observers inside. The drone of “Franken” and “Coleman” was accompanied by the swishing of paper in Medicine Lake Room A. Early on, Engdahl had to admonish some candidate representatives from trying to tell her counters how to count. Clearly, she said, the recount watchers are “very passionate,” but she has to remind them of everyone’s roles in this civic drama.
Eight of the 24 precincts had been counted by 1:45 p.m., and the only challenged ballot, in Engdahl’s view, was clearly a vote for Coleman. Nevertheless, the Franken campaign was allowed to seek a second opinion.

Minnesotans are WAY more civil than those crazy Floridians. Lake Wobegon could never exist in the Sunburn State. Only one ballot challenged? That's nothing! If it were Palm County, the Republicons would have sent in a band of rioters to the county building to disrupt the counting.

They may be civil, but I question their intelligence with so many voting for Al Franken. Then again, they DID elect Jessie Ventura Governor.

I would have voted for him given the chance. I listened to his show when it was on Air America, and he's pretty smart, and funny.
Al Franken has been writing comedy for about thirty years. Satire often takes the absurd, the cruel, and the unjust and ridicules it using satire. I bet I could take some of your words spoken over the past thirty years and make you look pretty awful too.
It's a shame Norm Coleman didn't feel he could win re-election by relying on his stances on the issues.

I think we should hold those running to the same standards, and I believe a lot of other people do too. I'm not the only one who has suggested that one of the reason so many independents moved away from McCain this year was because of his ads, where he took Barack's words and actions out of context in order to distort their actual meanings. More people are becoming hip to this tactic, and don't like it when they see it.

Speaking of taking words out of context, what happened to "CHANGE"? looks like most of Obama's appointments so far are the old Clinton b unch.
