Sen Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), who has been the only Senator from Minnesota for the last five and a half months, is now predicting that the heavily-litigated Senate race between Al Franken and Norm Coleman will be over by July 4 — or she’ll be mad.

“I have predicted the 4th of July, when the corn is knee high on the 4th of July,” Klobuchar told Minnesota Public Radio. “I’ve already predicted that it would be done when the ice melted on Lake Minnetonka. That was incorrect. And I’ve now predicted the 4th of July. And if that is incorrect I will make no more predictions. I’ll just be mad.”
