Minnesota's Senate recount trial is set to begin, think we'll see a conclusion to this election one of these days? Working on three months and counting...

"The longest-running Senate campaign in the nation heads into the home stretch this week," reports the Washington Post. "We think."What do you think?
No one's really sure, given the protracted election battle between Funnyman Al Franken and Minnesota's incumbent Republican senator, Norm Coleman, if resolution is near. But today, in St. Paul, a three-judge panel will begin a trial to hear Coleman's challenge. Coleman's attorneys, according to the StarTrib, are arguing that the canvassing board that oversaw the hand recount established no uniform standard for reviewing the nearly 13,000 absentee ballots rejected on Election Day.
