Al Franken Pulls Ahead by a Molecule… Maybe
Now that the Chambliss/Whatsisname election has drawn to its exciting complex, we only have one official election for Indecision 2008 to obsess over — and I use the word "obsess" very lightly — and that's Al Franken's down-to-the-wire attempt to unseat Sen. Norm Coleman in Minnesota.
And now it looks as though Franken may — for the first time since the recount started — have pulled ahead of Coleman with a cool double digit lead…
Speaking on a conference call with reporters, Franken's chief counsel Marc Elias said the campaign's own internal count showed them up 22 votes, a jump from the 13 vote deficit that they faced on Tuesday.
"We have approximately 138,000 ballots left to count," said Elias. "94.3 percent of the state has now been counted… Obviously that number is going to change, but we are pleased thus far with how things are going."
Bear in mind, those numbers are according to Franken's "campaign's own internal count." All other counts seem to show Coleman as retaining his lead.
Except for mine, in which Minneapolis-native glam-funk rock legend Prince is jerking both candidates numbers like a horny pony would.
Now run and tell your mama about that.




Pass. I want to think of horses in a purer way…although I saw a movie with an evil hobby horse last night, and even that was somewhat disturbing.
If a horny pony jerks someone off, is that called a hoof job?
My Mama is a stickler for grammar and I told her about this. She was appalled… at the metaphor for pony fucking. Ponies don't really jerk when they get horny she told me. They have Napoleonic Complexes and like to stretch things out to build pony lovemaking to a crescendo. She directed me to the following Shetland Pony dating site on YouTube: That's My Mama!
