The long fought Minnesota U.S. Senate battle is finally over....
The high court rejected a legal challenge from Republican Norm Coleman, whose options for regaining the Senate seat are dwindling.
Justices said Franken is entitled to the election certificate he needs to assume office. With Franken and the usual backing of two independents, Democrats will have a big enough majority to overcome Republican filibusters.
Coleman accepted the loss shortly after the decision was announced, saying he had few regrets.
"The Supreme Court has made its decision and I will abide by the results," Coleman told reporters outside his St. Paul home.
...now the Democrats have FULL control - the question is what will they do with it? More cap-and-trade nonsense? Cut and run from Iraq and Afghanistan?
Al "saturday night live" Franken is now a U.S. Senator....God help us...
