Can Scott Brown actually win in Massachusetts? Let's hope so. If you believe the polls, Brown is ahead by three points. Well, at least he is in Coakley's internal poll. So even the Democrat's own poll has her behind the unknown (until now) Brown. Wow! Mass. hasn't had a Republican Senator since 1972 and it's about time they joined the rest of the world.
For starters there was just no way that Kennedy was ever going to lose an election in the People's Republic of Mass. Ok, I know that's more than obvious since he had been in the Senate since 1962. That's before I was born by the way. But now it seems that some of that "Change you can believe in" might just be coming.
Rumor has it that Neo, I mean The One, er....I mean Obama might be coming to town to campaign for the damsel in distress. We can only hope after how much good it did for Corzine in New Jersey and Deeds in Virginia. In an ad Brown tells Obama to stay away and let he and Coakley debate the issues and have the people decide. That's a pretty gutsy move if you ask me, actually calling out the Prez and telling him to stay home. Won't the media and Rahm Emanuel have a hissy fit over that remark?
Of course if the Obama stays in Washington it may just be to shield him from criticism if Coakley loses. It sure wouldn't do his image much good if he goes and Brown wins. Especially after the November elections and the first trip to Copenhagen to try to hustle the Olympics for Chicago. This way if Brown wins then the Dems can just blame Coakley for running a lousy campaign. If she wins then Obama will say it was expected. So it's a no-lose for Obama's image since it has been spun correctly. I guess that's what he pays Axelrod for. No, wait a minute, we pay Axelrod. That's too bad.
I saw a new campaign ad for Coakley today staring none other than Vicki Kennedy. For those that don't know, she is the widow of Ted Kennedy. In the ad she parrots Brown's comment from Monday's debate and says that "it's not the Kennedy seat, it's the people's seat." She is correct, and only four days too late. Once Vicki came out in support for Coakley that's when her numbers started to fall. I hope this ad has the same effect. Don't get me wrong, Mrs. K. seems like a nice lady, it's just that her politics, like those of the rest of the Kennedy family, are out of whack.
The liberals in this country want to give everything to those they think need it. They can't figure out that a whole lot of folks will do nothing just so they can get the freebies from the government. I don't mind helping those that are incapable of helping themselves, I will not help more of the people who will not do for themselves. Teddy Roosevelt summed it up pretty well when he said, "The first requisite of a good citizen in this republic of ours is that he shall be able and willing to pull his own weight."
Brown has said on numerous occasions that he will be the 41st vote against Obama-care. In effect this is a referendum on said Obama-care. For that reason alone I hope he manages to pull out a victory, or for Coakley to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Either way I don't care just as long as Brown wins on Tuesday. If he does win then Obama-care is dead in the water and the Dems will be running scared. Every one of the Representatives and Senators who's terms are up that voted for this monstrosity will have on tough time getting re-elected.
Obama doesn't seem to care. He said today that, "I see the polls" and "If Republicans want to campaign against what we've done by standing up for the status quo and for insurance companies over American families and businesses, that is a fight I want to have." Notice how he thinks that conservatives are against families and business. What a buffoon. If business is thriving then people have jobs. It's not about the banks giving loans to individuals who can't pay it back, it's about the banks making good loans to people and businesses so that the economy can grow. Didn't he take any kind of economics classes at Harvard?
Well Mr. President, you are getting your wish. No matter the outcome on Tuesday, the people will speak out nationally in November. Because even if it's close in Massachusetts, you lose. Massachusetts has been so liberal for so long, that if Brown can make it an interesting race and hang in there against any liberal for the "Kennedy seat" then the liberals are in big trouble.
Wasn't the Boston Massacre really the first battle that started the first revolution in this country?
Tuesday starts the second.
