No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Hope with Substance?

This could explain the euphoric attitude, not based in substance, held by so many Obama worshippers….oh wait, maybe it is based in substance!

Al Franken, Come On Down

by @ 5:44. Filed under Politics - Minnesota, Politics - National.

Al Franken was in Washington today attempting to convince Harry Reid to seat him in the Senate.   Harry appears to be leaning towards attempting to grant Al’s wish.

What’s ironic is that just a couple of weeks ago Harry Reid refused to seat Roland Burris in part, because he did not have a signed certification from the Secretary of State.   I’m not sure what set of rules Harry has now, but Al doesn’t have a certificate and won’t until Coleman’s suit is either dismissed (Al’s hoping, hoping, hoping) or gets resolved.   The former could happen in the next day or two.   The latter sounds like it could go on for several months.

No matter, in Harry’s mind, the “election is over!”

(from Politico.com)

If Harry’s word is his bond, Al, pack your bags.   Although, you might not want to be renting any space in Washington yet.   You see, Harry has a history of declaring ends to things:

…that turn out just the opposite of how Harry sees them.

Hang in there Al. If you tire of the process, it’s not too late to move back to NY. I hear they’re still looking for a Senator!

(Update 7:34 AM – Guess you’re going to have to wait for that certificate Al)
(Update 7:58 AM – Oops, too late for that NY seat! Guess you’ll just have to enjoy the Midwest a bit longer!)
