New Web Page Allows You to Track Norm Coleman's Election Obstructions in Chronological Order

The Internet is amazing, folks. To prove as much, we want you to imagine something for just a second:

Pretend it's the late '80s or the early '90s and web connectivity is not the everyday given we enjoy today. Now imagine that the Al Franken/Norm Coleman senate election took place back in this pre-web era. Do you realize how hard it would have been to track Coleman's near-constant obstructions to the electoral process?

Now flash forward to today, where we are living in an age of widespread Internet access. In an action befitting this marvelous era, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee has launched a web page featuring an interactive timeline of all the Coleman campaign's obstructions-- from goading Franken to concede on election night to his most recent lawsuit, filed just days ago.

Pretty cool, huh? In fact the only person who doesn't stand to benefit from this interactive timeline is Coleman himself, who would prefer that knowledge of the whole recount challenge be limited to the select cadre of himself, his lawyers, and perhaps a couple sympathetic Supreme Court justices.

But Coleman, too, sees benefit from the Internet. He just asks that Minnesotans kindly skip over his timeline of obstruction and focus on more positive things, such making online donations to his legal fund or placing orders for his wife's chintzy hair care products.

Oh, and they also shouldn't read any online editorials from Minnesota newspapers.
