Kentucky: Norm Coleman

Does Lt. Dan not understand the irony?

Per his latest campaign tweet, Lt. Dan is excited that Minnesota finally has its second senator in Al Franken.
I can't help but wonder why Lt. Dan is so excited, considering he has more in common with Norm Coleman than Al Franken. In the 2008 campaign, Al Franken made supporting a renewable energy future for America a priority, and will provide the crucial 60th Democrat in the Senate in order to bring forth a vote on cap-and-trade. Lt. Dan, for what it's worth, wouldn't be voting for cap-and-trade were he in the Senate today.

Al Franken campaigned in favor of the rights of workers to unionize without interference from corporate bosses.
