Former Sen. Norm Coleman (R-MN), who lost by a very narrow margin to Democrat Al Franken in the heavily-litigated 2008 Minnesota Senate race, doesn’t appear to be done with politics just yet.
In a possible sign that Coleman could still be trying to maintain his profile among the Minnesota GOP grassroots, he has reportedly authored a fundraising letter for a real hero of the GOP base, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN):
Make no mistake about it — this opposition isn’t coming from the Minnesotans she represents in Washington. It’s coming from the liberal netroots in places like San Francisco, Manhattan and Vermont. It’s coming from the same people who bankrolled Al Franken’s race against me and his legal battle to deny honest Minnesotans a fair vote last November.

The Bachmann campaign did not return our requests for comment.
