1. I want Coakley to win but..
.. I think it's a lost cause.

The Dems lost their way when they tried to be Reeps.

4. Coakley did it to herself
She entered the race with an arrogant air of entitlement just like Kathleen Kennedy Townsend in MD and Carolyn Kennedy in NY. When the American people are ticked off it's not the time to be aloof. She said she wasn't going to engage in retail politics. While Brown campaigned the state in a pickup truck she went to Washington to a fundraiser sponsored by healthcare industry lobbyists. How dumb was that?

My fear is that if the President stumps for her in Mass, and she still loses, he will lose some stature at a time when he can ill afford it.

18. Strange all this talk about MA anger. I haven't seen it.

Perhaps you can link me to something on that subject.

2. Link
BOSTON - His health care bill at stake, President Barack Obama plans a trip to Massachusetts to campaign for endangered Senate Democratic candidate Martha Coakley amid release of a poll showing an edge for the Republican Party in the race to fill a Senate seat Democrats have held for over a half-century.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said that Obama would appear at an event for Coakley in Boston on Sunday.

A Suffolk University survey released late Thursday showed Scott Brown, a Republican state senator, with 50 percent of the vote in the race to succeed the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy in this overwhelmingly Democratic state.

3. I'm gonna go with close race. Not sure lost cause is quite true
And when they're this close little things count. I think Obama thumbing his nose at Brown who 'warned' him not to come will knock the arrogant little prick off his game some.

5. When/why did Brown warn Obama not to come?
That wasn't too bright.

6. He needs to make Biden VERY VERY visible working the Haiti problems while stumping
else the RW will scream "politics over crisis" at the top of their lungs.

13. I hope she wins but..
Edited on Fri Jan-15-10 03:20 PM by FACTSfirst
if she doesn't,the media will spin it as Obama losing more credibility with the voters.This might be the second candidate in trouble that he has stumped for and that person still couldn't pull it out...
