The US Senate race shifted gears last week with Norm Coleman's official launch of his campaign. Coleman scheduled a three day tour around the state to announce his run. The DigElog video team ran into Coleman on Thursday, March 27th, when he stopped by the Copper Lantern restaurant on highway 10 in St. Cloud. Coleman has been known to tailor his message to the audience and DigElog was there to capture his message on his "Tour Of Saints" along the Mississippi river.

Coleman was greeted by a warm and attentive croud in St. Cloud that packed the restaurant from end to end. His message addressed a number of Republican core values and included some special comments about the Desota bridge project funding (bridge being repaired crossing the Mississippi on highway 23).
