You might be forgiven for thinking the Minnesota trial is quite simply insane.

Earlier today Franken lawyer David Lillehaug was cross-examining Pamela Fuller, the election official for Republican-friendly Olmsted County, attempting to show how lost ballots in a Rochester precinct had resulted in a net minus-two for Al Franken in the recount.

Then Coleman lawyer Joe Friedberg got back up to demonstrate how the math really shows that Coleman lost a net-one vote here.

Lillehaug objected. To which Friedberg snapped back: “I believe he started this, your honor!” Lillehaug was overruled, and Friedberg continued.

He started it!
