My bonnie lies out by the ocean. My bonnie lies out by the sea.

There is a post in MnBlue suggesting that Laurie Coleman really was in California when filmed/taped for a new Norm spot, that she was sloppily dubbed in. Apparently, we are to infer that things are not good in the Coleman relationship or maybe that Norm is available for some ambitious woman.

I don’t know about the relationship between our senior Senator and his wife. I am not sure that I need to know. There may be some hypocrisy or inconsistency there, but these things are not limited to Republicans. Remember the picture of Bill and Hillary smooching on a beach in swimsuits a few days before the public learned the name of Monica Lewinsky? Or that they have continued to carry their marriage masquerade into this year?

People might want to think that the relationship between Norm and Laurie is their business, but I cannot really figure out how. Now, if people feared that others might actually fall for Norm’s claim to be a pro-family guy, it might have some relevance. But nobody actually falls for that, do they?

It is well known that Norman B. Coleman, jr. is not my favorite public official. But I cannot think but that this whole thing seems too close to swift boating or recent questioning on whether the state of Hawaii is competent to issue birth certificates.

Maybe Willie Horton can weigh in on this.

I don’t think it would surprise anybody if when this election is over that we learn that Norm and his wife are splitting. But will it really be a big deal?

Divorce happens, even in the best of families, even when both are of the same faith. It’s happened to people placed a lot higher than the Colemans.

Let them have their lives.

Don’t you like ANYBODY named Coleman? Most people who don’t like Chris like Norm.
