Heh, heh, heh: Funny Business in Minnesota - WSJ.com.
I love the smell of the WSJ editorial pages fuming.
Now if the WSJ news pages were concerned I'd pay attention. But the editorial pages?
That's just delightful in a wickedly funny sort of way.
Senator Franken. Ahhhh.
I voted for him of course, but when the Minneapolis Star Tribune double-crossed the state and endorsed Coleman (a notorious weasel) I figured he was toast. Despite working very hard and despite the state going strongly to Obama he didn't seem to be getting a lot of traction -- so I wasn't optimistic.
Happily I was wrong. This is a very good day, though the lawsuits may go on. (Some insiders seem to think Coleman will give up rather than incur large legal bills in pursuit of a lost cause, but my native pessimism assumes a long hard battle.)
Update 1/5/09: 538 dismantles the WSJ OpEd. Wow. I knew the WSJ editors were slimeballs, but they really outdid themselves this time. Murdoch is famous for calibrating to power. How longer before some of those scum join the breadlines?
