They know Franken is going to eventually be seated, but they really want to postpone it as long as possible so that he can’t add a Democratic vote to anything that comes through the Senate.U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says Democrat Al Franken will be seated in the Senate despite whether Republican Norm Coleman files legal appeals.Franken and Coleman are in the midst of a legal battle over the Minnesota Senate race, which officials say Franken narrowly won in a recount.
"We're feeling pretty confident," Reid, D-Nev., was quoted by Politico as saying in regards to Franken's prospects in the ongoing legal battles over the election.
The Washington publication noted that Republicans have threatened to filibuster if Democrats attempt to seat Franken.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
