A STATEMENT FROM SENATOR COLEMAN
Statement On Senator McCain’s Selection Of Governor Palin As His Running Mate
ST. PAUL – The following is a statement from Senator Coleman regarding Senator John McCain’s selection of Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate.
“John McCain has made a bold and historic choice in selecting Governor Sarah Palin to join him on the Republican ticket as his Vice President. As a wife, mother, former Mayor and as Alaska’s first female Governor, Sarah Palin brings a wholly American experience to the table in this campaign. She’s been a strong, independent leader on fiscal responsibility, the environment and energy. And, as a former Mayor myself, I am thrilled with the idea that she will bring that ‘getting things done’ point of view with her to Washington, D.C. With this ticket, the message to America is very, very clear. We must remain rooted to our principles of a strong, prosperous and peaceful nation, and continue to focus on revitalizing our nation economically and defending our national security interests.”
