This morning Norm Coleman is having a fundraiser with relators in Saint Paul. I emailed with the DFL and got a quick response from Frank Benenati:

How ironic that Senator Norm Coleman is raising campaign cash from realtors while still refusing to allow a single one of them into his million-dollar Washington crash pad to objectively determine its real value on the open rental market.

Perhaps the real-estate professionals from whom Coleman is collecting campaign cash will ask him the questions that Minnesotans - and the Senate Ethics Committee - are still waiting for him to answer, like: Where’s his lease? Who’s paying his utilities? And how with a straight face can he still claim that a mere $600 a month is anywhere close to market value for his million-dollar Capitol Hill digs? Maybe we’ll get some real answers, but Minnesotans shouldn’t hold their breath.

Hey, Frank, it’s a “security risk,” remember? Well, at least for job security.

My take? I wonder how Coleman will address the, um, little things like the housing market and foreclosure crisis. It might be a concern this morning with realtors.

Yeah, let’s give that guy more money.
