Coleman wimped out on offshore drilling, global warming legislation and he's not convincing on RKBA. Minnesota needs a senator from the more conservative southern part of the state.

Minnesota voted against Ronald Reagan TWICE. It has also sent democrats to congress pretty consistently in the last 25 years. The last guy who held coleman’s seat was a huge liberaltard. Even after his death, his dem replacement was set to win the seat until the democrats decided to heavily politicize the funeral.

Coleman is the best we can expect from Minnesota. Hell, he’s been better than I expected given that Minnesota is more far-left than Maine and Maine has traditionally been a republican stronghold.

Aside from Rep. John Kline, there really isn't anyone in the bullpen (I love Michelle Bachman, but I don't think she'd do well in a state-wide race; they've already been treating here like Sarah Palin since she was in the legislature). The state legislators have been less than inspiring, so hopefully someone will be able to break through the moderates/liberals who run the state party.
