10. OMG. Norm looks like he was actually cool once upon a time.
Edited on Thu Feb-12-09 10:24 PM by Vektor
Probably a heavy metal listening, leather jacket wearing, pot smoking, ne'er do well.

(Exactly like me and all my friends at that age.)

What the hell happened? He's totally lame now. Out of the whole bunch, he would have been the one I'd have assumed grew up to be a liberal. :shrug:

23. Yeah, same here.
See my below post, he used to be a huge liberal, then the ol' kool-aid sunk in.

Yeah, he looks like every boyfriend I ever had in my reckless but incredibly fun youth.

14. Question: Would you give this guy a lift if he was walking down the road.
Scary looking motherfucker if you ask me. I would change lanes away from him and speed up.

He's definitely a cold-blooded mass murderer. I'll bet he killed more people than Bundy and Gacy.

26. How old was he in that?
That isn't a high school photo is it? Why does he look like he's in his 30's?

34. I can't believe that's actually someone's yearbook picture. He looks like shit.
And I'm not just saying that because I hate him - he really does look bad. He looks like he just got done mowing the lawn, not that he would ever be caught dead doing anything resembling manual labor.

15. HAHAHA!! I KNEW IT! Good ol' Norm....Indeed was a hell raising, in-your-face liberal.
Edited on Thu Feb-12-09 11:00 PM by Vektor
(Then he drank the kool-aid.)

From wiki:

Main article: Political positions of Norm Coleman


Coleman's politics have changed dramatically throughout his political career. In college, Coleman was a liberal Democrat and was actively involved in the anti-war movement of the early 1970s. He ran for student senate and opined in the school newspaper that his fellow students should vote for him because he knew that "these conservative kids don't fuck or get high like we do..."
:rofl:

44. I know it wouldn't have been dignified, but for a good giggle wouldn't it be funny
if Franken had sent out a mailer with this photo and quotes.

Hysterical! :evilgrin:

22. Biden was (and is) hot!
Edited on Thu Feb-12-09 10:57 PM by liberalmuse
What stole the soul from Dick Cheney? He looked nice when he was younger. John McCain reminds me of those cute little short kids in High School that were always tormenting everyone. And Coleman looked like a massive, Led Zepplin-loving stoner. Huckabee was adorable, and Jimmy Carter looked like a decent, clean cut young man.

27. Huckabee and Coleman were pretty cool looking when they were young
Weird.

I thought the first was Wexler until someone else said Biden.
