Sheesh, there's never a dull moment in our government and political scene anymore, is there. I have to tear myself away from FR and breaking news to take care of life's little chores.....and find myself running back constantly to see what bizarre or startling news has just cropped up.
Coleman's ACU (American Conservative Union) rating hovers around 68. He's been as high as 84.
Just for the sake of comparison, the ACU ratings for the GOP Floradora Girls, Collins and Snowe (both from a socialist state like Coleman), is around 32 for each.
Comparisons are odious, so they say, but at least we see that Coleman is more than double in conservatism than the odious Doublemint Twins from Maine.
We could do worse than Sen. Coleman, in other words, given the weirdo socialist voters in his state.
The state bird of Minnesota, by the way, is the Common Loon, which is eerily apropos.
Look it up if you don't believe me, LOL.

It doesn’t really matter all that much. We either get a liberal from New York who sucks at being a comedian or we get a liberal from New York who sucks at being a Republican.
