An open letter to Norm Coleman
Today, the trial to determine who wins the Minnesota senate seat in the race between Al Franken and Norm Coleman begins. I’d like to take the opportunity to address the former senator and former mayor of St. Paul.
Dear Norm,
We go way back. I originally didn’t vote for you as governor of the state of Minnesota my freshman year of college. You may remember that election; it’s the one you lost to a former professional wrestler. Paul Wellstone had to die for you to get into the senate. Now you’ve been defeated by a comedian who hasn’t even lived in Minnesota for most of his life. It must suck a lot. Really. I sympathize with you.
But it’s time to be an adult about it, Norm. You lost the election. Al Franken is now the senator from Minnesota. Let it go. Go….consult or something.
Hugs and kisses (no, not really),
Amanda
