Republican Norm Coleman has conceded to Democrat Al Franken in the Minnesota Senate race, ending one of the longest Senate races in American history and clearing the way for Democrats to hold a 60-seat supermajority in the Senate.

Establishing Universal Health Care in the United States is both a Conservative and Liberal thing to do!
He could've done this when he actually lost, but as it stands he lost both the race and his dignity.

I've enjoyed Franken's books and commentary. The Harvard-educated comedian seems to have a firm grasp on the issues, and I am excited to see him put that knowledge to use in the Senate.

"Even as it stands, the Home Guard could only exist in a country where men feel themselves free. The totalitarian states can do great things, but there is one thing they cannot do: they cannot give the factory-worker a rifle and tell him to take it home and keep it in his bedroom. That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."

"Police, at all times, should maintain a relationship with the public that gives reality to the historic tradition that the police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full-time attention to duties which are incumbent upon every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence."
-Sir Robert Peel
I always wanna laugh at anyone who supports the notion that a majority of their party is what's best for the nation.
I know what you mean. While I'm glad there's a Democrat president, them controlling both houses as well has brought us the Stimulus, Auto Industry Takeovers and now Cap and Trade.
We're only seven months past the election.
Scary.
