Born at the Crest of the Empire

After a key ruling went against him, Norm Coleman's lawyers send a letter asking the Minnesota Supreme Court to "reconsider."

Really? They hear the case, they rule, and then you ask them to "reconsider?" You expect that to work?

By Coleman's definition of "equal protection" it seems that law themselves, by their very nature, are "unequal" in that those who violate them are treated differently that those who follow them.

You have Cornyn. I have Gregg. And Todd (MN) has Colman.... Our states' shames.

Wasn't Coleman, just a few months ago, telling Franken to give up the ghost and let Minnesota have the representation it so sorely needs?

Hypocrisy to a politician is like string theory to a non-astrophysicist... Something they've heard about, but ultimately a concept beyond their ability to comprehend or recognize.

NYC, Yes. He very clearly said that if he were in Franken's position he would step aside for the good of all.

.....

EPM, Yes, Coleman has proven that morality (like Coleman) is a political tool.

Also, the thing to remember is that Coleman's being egged on by the GOP and Senate Republicans who want to keep that 59th vote out as long as possible.
