Sen. Coleman: I Wouldn't Go To GOP Convention If It Wasn't In My State

[chat_noir]

Coleman said convention attendance is a simple election-year decision for many Senators who are facing tough re-election battles.

"So I think those who come here will have an extraordinary time. But the colleagues who don't come are staying at home only because they have tough races. If the convention wasn't in St. Paul, I wouldn't be at the convention," Coleman said.

1. With all the incumbent Republicans avoiding the convention and the association with Busho and it's

wholly owned subsidiary, McCain, Inc., I've wondered if Norm wished he could skip it as well.

Now I know.

2. Well, not unless some high-powered lobbyist paid for his rooms...

...and dates.

4. I know why Norm doesn't like conventions

Just look at the crowd he attracted in 2006(state convention)


There are almost more people on stage than out in the crowd.
