Senate Republicans Agree to Pay Coleman Legal Bills


NBC News reports that the NRSC has committed $750,000 to help Norm Coleman (R) pay his legal bills in his fight with Al Franken (D) over Minnesota's empty U.S. Senate seat. This all but confirms the strategy that Republicans would rather have an empty Senate seat than one filled by a Democrat.

"It's worth pointing out that this $750,000 isn't chump change."

Meanwhile, a new Rasmussen Reports poll finds that most Minnesotans believe Coleman should concede to Franken, 54% to 41%.

1. Why do republicons HATE America?

Why do republicons want America to FAIL?

Is is because they FAILED so miserably for the last 8 years, flusing America's economy, environment, and honor into the cozmic crapper? Sure seems like it...

2. Good question, 'cause it seems obvious to me, too.
And do they really think the majority of Americans will embrace them with their attitude?
I don't think that will be happening; if anything, they're turning people off with their actions, at least anyone paying attention.

3. Good
let them waste their fucking money-that's 3/4 of a million that some other republik congressperson WON'T be getting next year. Coleman will NEVER be seated even IF they somehow steal that election-he's under federal investigation
