Norm Coleman thinks Duluth is on Lake Erie
Guess he has been traveling on corporate dime so much he forgot what little he knows about the fine state of Minnesota - which he represents on paper, at least.

"We have Duluth, which is located on Lake Erie, which is the entryway, the gateway to the Great Lakes," he said as C-SPAN broadcast the proceedings. Duluth is on the shore of Lake Superior.

went to school in Iowa and saw a political future in MN. Saw a brighter future as a Republican while an elected Dem official. He's an idiot.

2. It still amazes me that this idiot
represents our state. And what pisses me off even more is that he is there instead of Paul Wellstone. Coleman is no more a Minnesotan than is Karl Rove. Yuck!!!

5. Good God!
It's bad enough for any so-called Minnesotan to confuse the names, but to actually think that that a lake on the shore of Minnesota, is the "gateway to the Great Lakes?"

Way to go, those of you (nobody here, I hope) who voted for him. Way to go.

BTW, I pray to God that somebody has this footage recorded. This has to be used in his 2006 opponent's campaign.

7. According to the paper
he made this remark on the floor of the Senate so, unless CSPAN caught it, we're out of luck on having a clip of it. The paper also reported that the weasel had this corrected in the Congressional Record. That is so wrong.
