SocraticGadfly: Franken loses one and wins one - what will Reid do?

Franken loses one and wins one - what will Reid do?

Will Harry Reid follow up on the “win” side? The Minnesota Supreme Court made two big rulings in Al Franken’s half of the Franken-Norm Coleman Senate seat wrangling in Minnesota.

The state Supremes said they won’t certify his election until the legal process is done.

But they then explicitly said the U.S. Senate can seat Franken without such a certification.

(Politico says the answer to the “does Reid have cojones?” question is a definite no, at least right now.)

Meanwhile, the justices continued to ding Coleman’s legal team.
