Coleman takes on a new challenge: Karl Rove  view story

It might have been the two most important hours of Norm Coleman's Senate career, or, in his words, "a terrible waste of time."
Former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, under attack by Republicans, had just called on President Bush to fire senior advisor Karl Rove, who some Democrats have alleged disclosed the identity of covert CIA agent Valerie Plame, Wilson's wife.
Within hours, Coleman was tapped to lead the Republican rebuttal, joining a broad GOP attack on Wilson and fending off an effort by Democrats to revoke Rove's security clearances.
