Wow, if the polling numbers are to be believed, this news is a little alarming.

It's interesting to note that although Ciresi's campaign claims that he's the electable alternative to Franken, his campaign trails Coleman by a larger margin.

I know that Coleman's research staffers have been accumulating a wealth of info on Franken (and trust me, there's a lot of it) and they plan on releasing it at various times during the campaign. They want to show voters that Franken is not Senate material.

Comments or opinions - anyone?

I'm so sick of RINOs that I'm having a hard time caring.

Ciresi's and Franken's ads have been running for EVERY evening commercial break on WCCO. I haven't seen a single Coleman ad yet and it's a "dead heat"?

That doesn't bode well for Franken IMO.

If Franken's little glory pieces are ever scrutinized in any meaningful way, his "radio political commentator" on the failed Air America, his 4 USO tours... two of which he was booed by the military folks in the crowd, his socialist health care system that cannot be paid for without doubling State taxes, and his kowtowing to the Teachers Union "special interest group" will pretty much sink him.

“...this news is a little alarming.”

Nothing....absolutely nothing in Minnesota politics shocks or surprises me anymore!! Add that to the fact that politics in America has changed to pop-politics, I’m waiting to hear that Louie Anderson will be running in the next Governor’s election.

This poll had Mondale beating Coleman by 5 points the day before the election in 2002. Coleman won by 5 points. Way too early to be panicking.

Don’t know that I’m all that surprised. Frankenstein seems to me to be the perfect “anti-Republican. I’m not surprised he is polling higher.
