I mean, it's one thing for New Orleans to keep sending Bill Jefferson back to Congress, and for the State to re-elect my worthless Senator Mary Landrieu...but Minnesota has made me feel a lot better about the intelligence of Louisiana voters.
It's not just that only a few hundred votes separate a serious US Senator from a not very funny, bitter, radical troll ex-comedian (well, maybe he still is one and don't know it). If that's not bad enough, those folks up there in Minnesota don't even know how to fill in the dottie-blocks on their ballots.
This ballot in the Minnesota Senate race recount is being challenged by Al Franken: Article here
It's obvious even to a stupid Redneck what happened here. Some old boy started to vote for Norm Coleman. He started filling in the dottie-block with his #2 pencil. Then he realized he was voting for the wrong guy, and decided to X it out instead of using his eraser, or asking for another ballot so he could start over.
I think the election officials in the fine State of Minnesota ought to just go ahead on and give that vote to Franken. It's obvious this old boy was trying to change his mind, hates President Bush, would like to flip the switch on Cheney, and probably got burned on a Coleman Stove at one time.
