According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, as of 8pm Central, incumbent Republican Norm Coleman's lead over his Democratic challenger, Al Franken, continues to grow. With over 91 percent of the recount completed, Coleman now leads the former Air America host by 344 votes. Even though over 5,000 votes have been challenged, Franken, if he has any class--which is a chancy assumption--ought to concede now. The onetime St. Paul mayor is headed back to Washington.

Yeah, fat chance on him conceding. There's talk he's going to run to his pals in Washington for help.
