Poll question: Will the MN Supremes announce the Franken decision today?
I wanna tell these Justices that You Keep Me Hangin' On.

But they will only reply: You Can't Hurry Love. While we Let Me Go The Right Way, you need to just wait for The Happening.

Meanwhile, Harry Reid emails Franken: Someday We'll Be Together and Stuart Smalley begins a novel about the election called Reflections.

Norm Coleman, a soon to be defeated man, returns to his Baby Love saying aren't you glad to be Back In My Arms Again?

Okay, that's as much as I can do.

2. I'm going to say yes, just because I've been saying no for so long
Maybe that'll jinx it in a postive way.

3. DU votes that it's more likely
the duck will be freed than the MN Supremes will announce today. Am I reading this right?

4. I hope not.
Ensign affair. Sanford affair. Franken winning the election.

I can only take so much happiness in such a short time frame. Space it out a little bit so I can enjoy them all fully.

6. That's a good point.
Franken being seated would knock the philanderer off the front page. It's too our advantage to have it stay there to show people what Republican family values really look like.

5. I just wanna hear Normie, leaving the building, singing "My World is Empty Without You."
While Al Franken rejoices, singing to Normie "Love is Here and Now You're Gone."

7. If not today, then late Friday.
With the GOP-controlled media obsessing on the death of Farrah, Sanford's affair, Iran, the motorcycle bombing in Iraq, etc. They will be able to sneak this anti-climactic announcement in an get little coverage for it.

It's been a foregone conclusion since the judge made Coleman pay Franken's legal fees.

Now maybe we can get healthcare through the senate.

9. Impatiently waiting & twiddling my thumbs -
Edited on Thu Jun-25-09 02:52 PM by dmr
On both my pc and laptop, I have had for over week a Google News page open anticipating the good news.

I solace myself in believing the judges are crossing every 'T' and dotting each 'I', making certain there is absolutely nothing Coleman can do to wreck the People's choice in their Senator.

While I wait, I dream of the Sunday when Al puts smiles on all our faces by appearing on 'Meet The Press'. I think they should invite John Cornyn, so Al can have some fun, and I can enjoy him doing it.


Edit: grammar

10. Me too.
I thought they announced decisions at 4 or 5pm on Thursdays but someone said it was 10 am. It's 4pm now in MN.

11. Wonder if that means we have to wait for next Thursday, then,
or maybe they'll surprise us tomorrow. Hope so.

:)
