Coleman Reaction to Franken Endorsement
Here's Coleman for Senate Campaign Manager Cullen Sheehan's statement 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."
