No shit Sherlock

From a Politico article on the Franken/Coleman ruling:

“No one should blame the lawyers here on the Coleman side,” said Rick Hasen, an election law expert at the Loyola Law School in Los Angeles. “They just had a hard luck draw. I don’t know if Franken’s lawyers would have done any better if the numbers were reversed. … They [the Coleman legal team] had the facts and the law against them.”

No, after the mandatory recount (remember the one Coleman demanded Franken not have -- though it was mandatory in an election so close) it all falls on the shoulders of Coleman and the national Republican Party. Another awesome victory for the Michael Steele & Co.
