17. This does sound fishy. No news coverage and now a judge declares Coleman can pick.
Edited on Tue Feb-03-09 06:17 PM by McCamy Taylor
To me it sounds like a Republican set up. They will declare a court ruling that says "Coleman won" at the same time that the news media is portraying Congressional Dems as "drunk with power" so that there is now a "compelling need" for 42 Senate Republicans to check them. The SCOTUS will decline to hear the case (basically absolving themselves of their guilt over Bush v. Gore where they stepped in, though in fact they will not be absolving themselves). And that will be that.

The only problem is that a federal judge might step in to say all the ballots must be counted if they count some of them. Who is the federal circuit judge? A Republican appointee? Someone whom the Republicans can blackmail? Is he in the bag or not?

Did Obama leave the New Hampshire seat alone, because he intends to have the DOJ step in to enforce the Voting Rights Act in Minn. if they are not counting all the votes? And he does not want to be accused of going after the 60th Democratic vote?
