Al Franken's Campaign: Same Old Stuff- Heavy on Attack and Unfounded Accusations, Weak on Policy and Actual Solutions

 

Franken Says…
In his first year, when President Bush's approval ratings were high, he voted with the President 98% of the time.
The Facts Say…Al, there you go again.
In 2003, while CQ found Sen. Coleman to have supported the President 98% of the time, it also found him to be the eighth most likely Republican to break from his party on party unity votes, at 92%. The 2006 survey placed him in exactly the same position - eighth most independent Republican.
