Ya!
Sen. Cornyn has probably blown two gaskets over this:
After hedging for weeks about how he’ll react to the state Supreme Court ruling on Minnesota’s Senate race, Gov. Tim Pawlenty gave his clearest answer to date Sunday.
“I’m going to follow the direction of the court,” he said during an appearance on CNN. “We expect that ruling any day now. I also expect them to give guidance and direction as to the certificate of election. I’m prepared to sign it as soon as they give the green light.”
…
Pawlenty added: “I’m not going to defy an order of the Minnesota Supreme Court. That would be a dereliction of my duty.”
If Timmy wants to be President, he can’t dial back from that. And so, our long journey may be ending. Perhaps.
A real GOP stalwart would threaten to call out the national guard and hold the state supreme court under house arrest until they reversed the ruling. I guess it is going to be Newt and Talibunny on the 2012 ticket.
He also said that he’d follow the order of a federal court if they told him not to sign it … wink wink, nudge nudge.
I have been waiting for the sexy, sexy Senatorial career of Al “Smalley” Franken for sooooo long.
The Comedy. The. Pure. Comedy .Gold.
It’s like Christmas up in here.
