Coleman Becomes Butt of Late Night Jokes


Politico notes Norm Coleman (R) has become a favorite topic of late night comedians over his court fight against Al Franken (D).

Here are a few of the better jokes:

"They had elections today in Iran. Apparently, it's still too close to call. They say if the vote is still close by tomorrow, there will be a runoff election next week and then the usual series of lawsuits from Norm Coleman." (Bill Maher, June 12)

"So now they're going through the recount. They're recounting the ballots cast in the Iranian election, and today they found 14 more votes for Norm Coleman." (David Letterman, June 17)

"The supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, said, 'This election was not rigged, the results are final, and you can protest all you want, but if you keep doing it, we're going to start cracking heads.' Now, if we could only get this guy to call Norm Coleman." (Bill Maher, June 19)

On Iran's decision to get rid of 3 million suspicious votes: "To put that in perspective, that's enough to put 9,615 Norm Colemans in the Senate." (Steven Colbert, June 23)

2. Coleman and the GOP

Remember the "get over it" chorus from GOPers during the 2000 debacle? Seems like they don't practice what they preach, and Franken actually won it!
