COLEMAN FOR U.S. SENATE PRESS RELEASE: “COLEMAN FOR SENATE STATEMENT ON AL FRANKEN ENDORSEMENT”
By Michael B. Brodkorb | June 7, 2008
Rochester – Coleman for Senate Campaign Manager Cullen Sheehan made the following statement today following the Minnesota DFL endorsement of Al Franken:
“On the first ballot, the DFL Party endorsed a candidate who stands outside the mainstream of the state he wants to represent. From jokes about raping women, to a commitment to raise gas taxes on hard working Minnesotans, to a commitment to sitting down and negotiating with terrorist groups like Hamas, Al Franken has shown he lacks the judgment to serve in the United States Senate. In a day and age when we need less partisanship – not more – and where we need people who can work across party lines to get things done, Al Franken is simply more fuel on the partisan fire burning in Washington. We look forward to a campaign where there are clear choices – a choice between Norm Coleman, who has a 30 year record of bringing people together to get things done for Minnesota, and Al Franken’s 30 year record of driving people apart.”

The first “clear choice” was may have been made by Ron Carey, MN GOP Chairperson. He spent the morning and early afternoon of he day of his 27th Wedding Anniversary at the State DFL Convention in Rochester, Minnesota. He had a polite Honorable Mention at the DFL Convention.
It seems to me that perhaps his morning choice may have been, between the MN DFL Party and his wife of 27 years.

Maybe his anniversary gift was keeping pressure on the DFL’s facist rape satirist who demands to be U.S. Senator.

Research the women whom the MN GOP have recently showcased. It is non-fiction.

What a stupid comment from El Presidente. Rape knows no color or ethnicity. All one needs to watch is Greta Van Sustern on Fox. She has done plenty of stories of all kinds of women of various ethnicities being raped or killed. Your comment is one of liberal fascism. Al Franken is no Paul Wellstone. He is an embarrassment to anyone decent and thoughtful. I’ll be surprised if he even gets 40% of the vote in a supposedly democratic landslide year. You know if he was a successful writer or radio personality I sure bet he’d still be back doing that. If you notice he sure loves to dish it out like he’s done with some of his books but the minute someone holds him to the same standard he calls it a personal attack. Rush Limbaugh might be a big fat idiot but Al Franken really does have a pig face. Look at it closely, he’s pigman!

norm coleman’s initial response was the best: while al franken was condoning rapists, i was prosecuting rapists.
which side of the argument do most people want to be on: coddling rapists? prosecuting rapists?

“Coddling rapists…” … coddling terrorists. That’s the Democrat way of life.

Compare and contrast the demographics of Representative Laura Brod with the demographics of the rape and sexual abuse victims who come forward, and the projections that are out there.
It seems to me that the GOP put on mostly a certain type of demographic face for the cameras to film [white, upper middle class and/or upper class, Eagan-type].
C.V. stated, “What a stupid comment from El Presidente.” He then went on to claim that rape knows NO color NOR ethnicity, and ALL we have to do is to watch a certain woman [who happens to be white] on FOX.
Perhaps Ron Carey’s “clear choice” isn’t so clear after it has been scrutinized. It also needs to be discussed.
