Question for Minnesotans....
How did my usually sensible niebors to the north elect this idiot Norm Coleman and
what are the odds of him getting tossed out? The guy is down right scary.

Many liberal cheeseheads are wondering.

1. They killed Wellstone
and Walter Mondale didn't have enough time to compensate and keep the seat.

3. Faulty memory in play here, but I believe the Rovebots donated
sufficient funds to a lesser Democrat so that Coleman appeared to have a weak opponent -- same dirty trick they used to get "Governor" Pawlenty "elected" -- split up the opposition so your Chosen Rethuglican can stomp on the pieces.

Somebody from Minnesota correct me if I'm wrong, my memory has become "Wonderful" like Mark Twain's -- I can remember thousands of things that never happened.......

I KNOW, next door in South Dakota, bloggers were paid thousands of dollars by Rethugs to circulate lies about Sen. Daschle in the effort to get him defeated, and it worked.
