TPM:
The Minnesota Supreme Court has just issued its order establishing a schedule for Norm Coleman's appeal of the Senate election result -- and even though this schedule has been expedited by the standards of normal civil litigation, it's going to be a while by political standards.
The court adopted the proposed briefing timeline from the Coleman campaign, allowing them more time to formulate their arguments: Coleman's brief is to be submitted by next Thursday, April 30; Team Franken will submit its brief by May 11, and a reply brief from Coleman is to be submitted by May 15.
On top of that, oral arguments have been scheduled for June 1 -- a month and a week from today.

It's the neorepublicon way. Can't win? Fight 'em by dragging it out as far as it can go, hoping they'll tire out along the way. Well Normie, as my granny says, "give 'em enough rope and they'll hang themselves" I'm sure she meant that figuratively.
Wonder if some poor republican has been ordered to give old Norm's wife a job again? You know a down and out Senator don't make shit. Exactly what are Norm's job skills?
