Minnesota's Norm Coleman is leading a group of GOP senators in a fight against Bush's proposed budget cuts. The Democrat-turned-Republican serves on four Senate committees including Foreign Relations. As mayor of St. Paul, he created a national model for building public/private partnerships. In '98, he narrowly lost the governor's election to Jesse Ventura. Coleman says he switched Parties because he felt the GOP held the best opportunity for job growth, quality education and greater public safety.
