Norm Coleman: Key To Republican Success Lies In The "Ethernet"

Clearly, Norm Coleman isn't exactly tech-savvy. After a speaking engagement in St. Louis this week, he told a video-camera wielding supporter that the key to success for Republicans "lies in the ethernet."

Coleman, who was in Minnesota Supreme Court this week appealing the Senate election results, was in St. Louis to give a speech at the Conservative Heartland Leadership Conference.

Minnesota Public Radio has audio of Coleman's remarks to reporters Thursday.

That was ridiculous.

[SuzyQ08]

I don't think the ethernet, or the internet, is going to help the GOP much. Their problem isn't the forum they're using, it's their message.

[tierone]

Amen.

[dst1]

second

[rich misty]

Conservatism is a criminal ideology that knows no limits, and no shame. Whatever the message is, the goal is to inflict hurt on Americans.

[FrozenNorthObserver]

no their goal is to enrich themselves and they believe it's their divine right to hurt people in order to fuflill that desire.

[FrozenNorthObserver]

they need someone that can translate dinosaur.

[edtheengineer]

They don't need to translate dinosaur. However, they do believe that their ancestors were the folk who rode them.

[Akindles]

Yeah, but now they might be able to put their message across with garish animated gifs and dropshadow fonts.

[askmeificare]

Can't get to the internet without first getting on an ethernet.

[CrackerJacker]

Er, not exactly. Wifi, 3G, 2G, dial-up, the newer wireless standards such as Wi-Max and then there's just those plain old, cheap hockey-puck USB broadband modems.

[Jeremy Dehner]

guarantee you that somewhere along the way you hit an Ethernet line

[unhhockey]

Norm, if you're running a little low on money after all these legal battles, have you considered suing your dentist?

[CrackerJacker]

Dentist? I thought they must have been architects, his teeth look like the Hoover Dam!

[AfricanWahala]

What about The Google and the Internets?

[vdub4]

His upper plate dentures frighten me...
