Coleman and Franken on same flight to D.C., tweet says

By Joe Kimball | Published Wed, Jun 17 2009 9:24 am

The Minnesota Independent publishes a Twitter report from Matt Hill that Al Franken and Norm Coleman were on the same flight to Washington, D.C., yesterday.

First report, yesterday morning:

"Late arrival History Day scholars had BOTH Franken and Coleman on their flight to DC yesterday. Tense flight... Any ideas?"

And later:

"More details from late MN History Day flight to DC w/ Franken &Coleman. Franken was in coach, Coleman was in first..."

4. The Coleman campaign is hemorrhaging money - but he still gets to fly first class?
He deserves a dog crate in cargo.

10. Who says he's paying for it?
My guess is the RNC is footing the bill.

5. Depends on the airline
Sun Country has first-class upgrades for only $99. It's a flat fee. Others, however, get really pricy.

11. I don't care to fly these days, but I'd love to have Franken
sitting next to me. I think it would be an enjoyable flight even if it was on "Screaming Baby Airlines".
