Sticky Pendulum

Not just another great band name... apparently a very real problem in Minnesota, too.

Senate recount: Pendulum swings to Franken

Sure sounds like a definite change in the race, doesn't it?

Franken unexpectedly picked up 37 votes...

Hmm... 37... so now he's in the lead?

By the end of Tuesday, with 93 percent of the total vote recounted, the Republican's [EDITOR'S NOTE: Franken is NOT the Republican] lead stood at 303 votes...

I see. So it's a moral victory? Not exactly what the headline implied...

UPDATE:
Now the Minnesota "Independent" tells us that Franken is claiming the actual lead. You know, like mathematically this time.

Does that mean the pendulum broke?

Shudder.
