Franken Units

I found this part of a comment over at the Ann Althouse Blog:
But I have no doubt Coakley and the Massachusettes will scrounge up enough found ballots to win by a margin of 2 or 3 Franken units*.

*(1 Franken = one trunkful of ballots= 250 votes).
I found it clever.  But I would never expect something like that to happen here in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  We are honest, decent and fair.

    That term is an instant classic!

    I don't believe, given the recent disbarment of our former speaker, that we're exactly immune from the possibility of such...

    Talking about Franken units, how long did it take him to get seated?

    Will that play into the health care bill strategy should Coakley lose the hold on the Senate?

Please be forthright, but please consider that this is not a barracks.
