State Republicans will gather at the Mayo Civic Center in Rochester this weekend (May 29-31) to presumptively endorse U.S. Senator Norm Coleman and otherwise whip-up the party faithful.

“Our goal is to fire-up our base at the convention,” said Republican State Party Chairman Ron Carey.

One ingredient to the fortifying mix will appear on Saturday at the close of the convention.

Karl Rove, former Deputy Chief of Staff and Senior Advisor to President George W. Bush, is scheduled to give the keynote address to the convention.

“Karl Rove is one of those individuals who can fire people up,” said Carey of the former Bush insider who has made the transition to media personality. “Hopefully he send everyone off fired up and ready to march,” he said.

Sen. Coleman is expected to be endorsed at 3 p.m. on Friday.

Gov. Tim Pawlenty is expected to address the convention Saturday morning.
