Minnesotans know that Norm Coleman isn't working for them in Washington. Now it's time to find out just who he is working for -- and what he's getting in return.
Al debated Norm Coleman for the first time at Farmfest near Redwood Falls, and it was a great success! Al laid out his vision for revitalizing rural communities, and focused on the issues that matter to people -- the economy, energy prices, health care -- just like he has along the campaign trail. He also used the debate as an opportunity to hold Norm Coleman accountable for his record of backing George W. Bush and selling out middle class Minnesotans to the special interests.
Al Franken confronts Norm Coleman's latest smear attack head-on -- and keeps the focus on Coleman's record of standing with George W. Bush and Big Oil.
Highlighting Norm Coleman's terrible record on issues important to Minnesotans, the Al Franken for Senate campaign today released this web ad. Titled "A Few More Things," the ad features a man in a bowling alley discussing Norm's many failings as Senator, like voting for giant cuts in student aid, selling out to Big Oil, and rubber-stamping the Bush policy in Iraq. As he hears about more of Norm's record, he realizes that although hockey will always be Minnesota's favorite pastime, Norm Coleman hasn't represented Minnesota well in Washington.
Al's wife Franni and daughter Thomasin introduce him as part of their launch of Women for Franken with a video for the website of the group, alfranken.com/women.
