Prof. Norm Coleman (R-Harvard)

CNN reports that former Sen. Norm Coleman will be a fellow at Harvard’s Institute of Politics in the fall. Six years ago, Al Franken — the man who took Coleman’s job — had a similar gig at Harvard, as a fellow at the Shorenstein Center. Franken used his resources to write “Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them.” It’s not yet clear how Coleman can best that. At the very least, this pours more cold water on rumors that Coleman might make a comeback in next year’s Minnesota gubernatorial election.
