Coleman had this change in the works all along!

I just saw one of Norm Coleman's new nice commercials. He didn't film it today. I think he has a bunch of these ready to go.

I'll bet that Norm's campaign strategy included Yom Kippur. Run the negative ads up to Yom Kippur, if they work fine. If they negative ads are working against him, use the day of atonement to announce that he is "reborn" and switches his strategy to be a nice guy.

Norm's not stupid, he knows that negative commercials in Minnesota run a risk. So he had to go negative enough to lure Al Franken in. Hopefully Al can adjust quickly.
