To get an idea of what a JOKE Norm Coleman is, consider:
He lost the governor race to a wrestler (Jesse Ventura) in 1998...

He beat Walter Mondale by less than 2% in 2002, and that was only because Mondale was placed on the ballot 11 days before the election after the tragic death of Paul Wellstone....

He lost to a comedian (Al Franken) in 2008 (though of course he cannot accept this loss, hence the dog & phony show going on in Minnesota now)...

Minnesota - Land of 10,000 lakes & 2 of the kookiest Republicans there are - Norm Coleman & Michelle Bachmann, :banghead:

1. He also beat Mondale because of a manufactured outrage over Welstone's memorial.

I guess it's a sin to actually discuss the beliefs of someone who had just died.

3. He's Chasing Ghosts...
You gotta believe he feels the karma of Paul Wellstone on him...especially when he was in Washington. Had that great Senator not met such a tragic fate, he would have had his ass handed to him and he'd be selling used cars. Now he's chased by the ghost of Franken present...fearing being beaten (and thus further illegitimized) by a "comedian". Imagine if Sean Hannity or Dennis Miller were about to be seated...and you couldn't beat him! The dude's spooked and a total loser.

votes count. 2. He's being investigated for money issues related to his TX connections - living arrangements and money changing hands. 3. His campaign is being investigated for credit card security lapses - contributors had to be contacted and warned about lifted card numbers.
