Funny Business in Minnesota - WSJ.com
This article, as with almost everything that appears in the WSJ editorial section, is a mixture of ,lies and rubbish.

It's explained here

http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2009/...heir-fact.html

why so.

The guy at 538.com is some baseball saber stat whiz who built a math model for predicting election results and predicted the 2008 State/national/presidential elections exactly right. He predicted a narrow GOP win in Indiana and it went narrow Dem, but other than that he predicted everything right down to electoral votes/percentage point wins etc. A first-time baseball guy put the pollsters to shame. He's almost as Infallible as I am. Anyway, he explains why the WSJ is as usual full of it. Franken won fair and square. \read the link, it's full of facts and evidence.
