‘Blog talk’: Coleman dismisses claim that national GOP is behind election delay

Norm Coleman plead his case before the editorial board at Coon Rapids’ ECM Publishers, Inc., on Friday, stating that he’s “fairly confident” the Minnesota Supreme Court will see things his way when it deliberates over the pending senate race against Al Franken.

He said that whoever wins will have “a cloud hanging over them” about whether they truly won the election, and he dismissed the claim that he’s the pawn of the national GOP, which is dragging out the process to prevent the Democrats from picking up another seat. “This idea that there’s some national movement out there delaying some things for the sake of delay — I think that’s a lot of blog talk,” he said.
