Senator's Wife Reveals Almost All!

Eager to promote her career as a Hollywood actress, Laurie Coleman , wife of Republican Sen. Norm Coleman of Minnesota, has authorized our exclusive publication of photos that show her in glamorous, provocative poses -- just in time for next week's Republican National Convention, where her husband, coincidentally, is among the operatives striving to add sizzle and star power to President Bush's coronation.

"A little edgy," the onetime model called the publicity pix, "but relatively tame by Hollywood standards." They include boudoir shots accented with the requisite bustier, stockings, garters and four-poster bed. "Honestly, I've done swimwear collections where I've had less on than that," she told us by phone from her home in St. Paul earlier this week.

The photos also depict the lovely Mrs. Coleman clad in cleavage-displaying dresses, enjoying cocktails. "Republicans can have fun," she pointed out with a laugh.

Is she a Republican? "How do I answer that?" came her coy reply. "I grew up as a Democrat, just like my wonderful husband." (Who switched in 1996.) "I tend to vote Republican, but I go all over the place."
