Mondale -- pres. bush has a right-wing bias (still talking about abortion) -- he's sending up judges who are too contoversial -- not sure he should be taking this position -- a LOT of people are pissed about the back-up of judicial nominees -- just what we need --another partisan dawdler

[Mo1]

Modale is is pulling the VRWC card

[bigaln2]

So Much for that non-partisan crowd! Applauding one of Mondale's comments

[Johnny Gage]

Norm's gotta get pissed. Mondale coming ALIVE... my God He's alive...

[aristeides]

Applause for Mondale from the audience. Who's in that audience?

[Catspaw]

Barkley is currently the head of Minnesota's Planning Commission, in Ventura's cabinet, and Reform party candidate for Senate in 1996 (the Independence party is the successor to the Reform party). He's VERY close to Jesse.

[Howlin]

Oh, Mondale is being ugly........if this is what MN wants, God help them.

"Right wing." UGH.

[isthisnickcool]

Oh my gosh! Mondale just hit Coleman with his cane!

[mwl1]

Is Norm enunciating and speaking up? People have problem listening to him because he talks too fast. Please share impressions. Thanks, Chris.

[Deport Billary]

I wasn't very old when Mondale ran for President. It's no wonder he lost. What a vicious old creep.

[GreatOne]

Barkley is one of the Independent Party founders in Minnesota. He ran for the Senate in the 1990s and got Jesse to run for governor.

[rintense]

Coleman needs to attack Mondale on this right-wing crap. What a frickin crock by Mondale.

[frmrda]

Mondale is not lost. He actually appears vibrant and coherent, not like he is on the stump. He's attacking hard and Coleman is doing nothing to hit back. He's being very restrained

[governsleastgovernsbest]

Mondale really filibustering on judicial appointments and saying not much of anything. Mondale rudely interrupts Coleman. Coleman with brilliant retort: this is the tone (Mondale's rudeness) that people don't want in Washington. Brilliant!

[Darlin']

Hehehehe. Technology. Ain't it sumtin ?

[mikegi]

Mondale is painful to watch. Old, confused, then his few remaining brain cells get synchronized and he spouts out a talking point.

[Wphile]

Litmus tests for judges, eh? Good Lord, so if a person is against killing unborn children, he cannot be a judge? Gimme a frickin' break.

[twyn1]

Mondale is being nasty -- Coleman is gentlemanly and saying this is just what we need to STOP -- all the nasty bickering and refusal to get along -- Excellent !

[Howlin]

You must not be watcing the same debate we are.
