Former Sen. Norm Coleman (R-MN) has released a statement on the Sotomayor nomination, promising to make a thorough review of her record -- as soon as he's re-elected:

ST. PAUL - Senator Norm Coleman today released the following statement in response to President Obama's nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the United States Supreme Court.

"When debating judges, I was firm that I would use the same standard to evaluate judges under a Democrat President as I would a Republican President. Are they intellectually competent, do they have a record of integrity, and most importantly, are they committed to following the Constitution rather than creating new law and policy. When I am re-elected, I intend to review Judge Sotomayor's record using this process. Certainly, the nomination of a Hispanic woman to the nation's highest court is something all American's should applaud."

In all fairness to Coleman, Al Franken has also released a statement on the Sotomayor pick.

"I want to congratulate Judge Sotomayor on her history-making nomination to the Supreme Court. Confirming a Supreme Court Justice is among the most important responsibilities the Senate has, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I look forward to joining my colleagues as we examine Judge Sotomayor's qualifications carefully before confirmation. However, it is already clear that President Obama has chosen a remarkable jurist with an impressive record of accomplishment and a life story with which working families can identify."

:rofl:

Dream on, putz...

Can't wait until he's gone.

My guess is it's nothing but TV snow.

The party is over. You are a guest who has stayed too long.
Get the fuck outta here, will ya?

by the time Coleman gets elected to anything. And then it'll probably be president of his local hair club.

n/t

he's got nothing of importance to say, since he wasn't re-elected to anything last year...

Never.

Somewhere a cricket is finely tuning his legs for his exit solo.
:eyes:

"American's"?

Because if he did, then he REALLY looks like an idiot.

Yes he did make it possessive :eyes:

And you want to be my Senator!
