Riveting

Don't know about you but I can't seem to stop watching this. and this
Amazing that out of 4 million votes cast in MN, the two candidates are just over a hundred apart.
The updates have been very slow today. If this is going to go on until Dec., how will I get any work done?

I can't figure any reliable way to guestimate the final outcome. What percentage of Coleman challenges are valid? Franken's? friggin modeling nightmare.....

am i wrong to think the consensus is this thing is still Coleman's to lose?

I can't figure out if it is his to lose or not...digby brought up the excellent article from the atlantic about Rovian tactics in close races, and as she points out Coleman has been playin that tune....MN has some of the best recount procedures in the country, but I think Al needs to be vigilant and fight hard for every vote and every legal point...

i know somebody who knows somebody high up on the legal side of this fracas that says neither side knows who's gonna take it, and both believe it may come down to just handfuls, hundreds, mebbe thousands of votes.

nothing to do but sit back and freak out about it.
