Norm Coleman is doing the “Minnesota Goodbye.” That’s when your last party guest is about to leave and finally go home but instead they linger by your half-opened front door to chat. “Well, it’s getting late, Norm. … Thanks for coming. … Yup, talk to you later, Norm. … I need to close the door now, Norm, because the cat might get out and there’s a cold draft coming in. … OK, goodbye … I’ve got a really early morning tomorrow, Norm. … Yes, bye-bye now … Drive home safely, Norm.” Now your guest is in your driveway continuing to talk so loudly you’re afraid he’ll wake the neighbors. Tired and shivering by your open door, you wonder if this guy is ever going to leave and go home.
