U.S. Senator: God wants me to serve
flockwoodIncumbent U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minnesota), fighting in court to keep his congressional seat, tells a radio interviewer that “God wants me to serve.”
Unfortunately for Coleman, God isn’t a Minnesota voter. Three months after Election Day, Coleman trails Democrat Al Franken, but just barely. The courts are still trying to determine who won the race.

Former Senator Coleman is Jewish. Who is he trying to persuade with this “God told me” business? Conservative Christians who believe that he’s damned for all eternity? (Yes, future Senator Franken is also Jewish. And possibly even more damned than Coleman.)
