3. Sick for Coakley, but I do not think it is her campaign skills that are the problem.

Baker is just as bad as she is or even worse, but she is being overspent by a large number, as the DGA and third party groups stayed silent and a bunch of people are suckers for the promise of low taxes as long as the Republican in question is pro-choice.

Add to this the sexism that is still existing in MA (Warren won by a small margin in a presidential election year where Obama won by a lot more).

But may be we can throw out all these Dems who endorsed Baker.


EDIT: RGA outspent DGA by 9:1. Can we stop considering MA as a given for Democrats, particularly in governor's races.

This is the last time I give to any Democratic institution. My money goes to the candidates now.
