Felons for Franken

After an 18-month study of the 2008 election, Minnesota Majority, a conservative watchdog group, is charging that Democrat Senator Al Franken's narrow victory over then-incumbent Republican Senator Norm Coleman was accomplished by the counting of illegal votes cast by convicted felons. While Senator Franken has yet to comment on the charge, might we reasonably expect him to defend the felon vote as an important part of the Democrat Party coalition? Along with illegal immigrants and dead people, of course.
