Norm Coleman May Not Be Done For After All

From Political Wire:

Judges said that nearly 4,800 rejected absentee ballots may be reconsidered in Minnesota's U.S. Senate recount trial, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports, which "would appear to be enough to put the ultimate outcome in doubt."

Al Franken (D), who holds a 225 vote lead in the race, had asked the judges to allow only 650 ballots that Norm Coleman (R) said he planned to challenge.

Is this thing ever going to end?

UPDATE: (from FiveThirtyEight.com)

The Court has also ruled, apparently, that the 4,800 absentee ballots Coleman wants to have counted will be held to a much higher burden of proof. Essentially, those ballots will be presumed to be guilty until proven innocent, and will have to be advocated for one at a time by the Coleman campaign, rather than being opened summarily and counted in bulk. This will make Coleman's rate of success very, very, very low, as opposed to merely very, very low. As Talking Points Memo notes, however, this process could take a very long time to complete and could continue to the delay the seating of a Senator Franken -- which may be Coleman's principal objective in the first place.
