As is the case with most of my diaries this started out as a comment for another diary and morphed into something a little bigger. The subject is the various wild speculation regarding the motives of the Coleman and Franken recount teams, the frivolity of their challenges and theories of RNC and/or Coleman recount strategies. I would like to provide some insight into this process from my point of view.

This was originally a comment on another diary on this topic, numbers , by dukelawguy. Suddenly it took on a life of it's own and became a diary. I figured that if there are diaries that aren't diaries then surely there must be comments that aren't comments. Let me offer a little sociological background on the make up of Mn-06. Outside of St. Cloud, which is the only urban area in the district, MN-06 is made up primarily of outer ring suburbs, exurbs with rows and rows of McMansions, and small rural communities with surrounding farms.

As someone who has been politically active in Minnesota's 6th district I have witnessed with horror the rise of Michele Bachmann from allegedly reluctant school board candidate to Congressperson and Fox news shill. As El Tinklenberg and Bill Prendergast have before me I want to thank everyone who has generously contributed to El's campaign from the bottom of my heart.
