Franken v. Coleman: Will this thing ever end?
“Yet Another Coleman Witness Admits She Was Cherry-Picked”
“The Coleman legal team just went through another round of calling aggrieved voters to the witness stand, pleading that their absentee ballots were improperly rejected. And again, they’ve run into some problems. The Coleman campaign called Elissa Jackson, a sympathetic mother of a five-month old. During direct examination, Coleman lawyer James Langdon tried to be open about the fact that she found out about her uncounted vote because of a phone call from the Republican Party.” Written by Eric Kleefeld.

January 14, 2009
“We expanded the electoral map, regained a majority in both houses of Congress, and put a Democratic president in the White House.”
“Howard Dean Says Goodbye in a Letter”
“Four years ago, I became chairman with a mandate for bottom-up reform — grow the Democratic Party in your neighborhood and every other community in America. We promised to compete in every state, for every level of office. And we demanded a party that would stand up for itself and fight for an agenda that reflects our values. But we are not stopping here. And even though my term as chairman is ending, I will be with you — and with our new chairman — every step of the way.” Written by Howard Dean.
