Massachusetts Democrats for Brown?

Believe me, I saw and heard this myself: One elected Democratic official — although required by the state party to support Coakley publicly — privately admitted over the weekend that he will vote Tuesday for Brown, as will his wife. Coakley was “mailing it in” on the senatorial campaign trail, the official said, relating how in […]

Are Democrats Planning to Steal the Massacusetts Election for Coakley?

Only if they have to, but at last night’s Coakley rally, Da Tech Guy overheard some union official assure a Democrat, “Don’t worry, the cavalry’s coming.”  Was that perhaps a reference to the SEIU “Purple Army” that Michelle Malkin is warning about? Scott Brown has consistently said he hopes for a fair election. “I have faith […]

Some Things You Really
Have to See to Believe

Yes, believe it or not, an SEIU member supporting Scott Brown — read her story at The American Spectator. Here’s another photo of the Brown supporters who turned up outside the Martha Coakley event at Worcester Polytechnic Institute tonight: Will update shortly with videos from tonight’s speech by Bill Clinton, but I just had to […]

VIDEO: New Scott Brown Ad Hits Martha Coakley for Ties to Lobbyists

(Hat-tip: Michael Graham.) UPDATE: You want to see how demoralized Democrats are about the distinctly unlikeable Martha Coakley’s horribly bad campaign? Check out the desperate arguments made by a liberal Massachusetts  blogger. (Hat-tip: Memeorandum.) I’m currently on deadline for The American Spectator and don’t have time to do a lot of aggregation right now — much […]

Scott Brown Meets the Press

FITCHBURG, Mass. “This is a big tent campaign,” Republican Scott Brown told reporters today at Boston’s Omni Parker House hotel. “I’m not into labels.” Brown responded to questions about a Boston Globe story that distorted the Senate candidate’s remarks about the Tea Party movement. Asked about the Globe’s assertion that he had claimed to be “unfamiliar” […]

Just Bought My Ticket to Boston

An eight-hour train ride on two hours sleep? Yeah, I can do that, for a “far-right teabagger”: Martha Coakley is running to fill the rest of Ted Kennedy’s term, and her opponent is a far-right tea-bagger Republican. . . . The special election is coming up on Tuesday, and it’s going to be close. Read Vicki’s […]

Kos Spins Mass. Senate Campaign: ‘Teabaggers’ Doom Scott Brown?

Jumping in Pools gives this spin a thorough fisking, but here’s just a taste of Kos in whistle-past-the-graveyard mode: Brown has been caught in a vice. His support from teabaggers was critical to becoming competitive . . . On the other hand, that conservative support has come at a cost. . . . The teabaggers demand ideological purity, and he’s […]

Massachusetts’ Chief Law Enforcement Official Ignores Political Assault; UPDATE: DSCC’s Meehan Apologizes

UPDATE 4:45 p.m. ET: Michael “I Work For Me” Meehan admits he was “was a little too aggressive” with John McCormack — a convenient admission, considering that the incident was caught on video and photographs. PREVIOUSLY: What else can you say about this photo? A campaign aide to Martha Coakley has just shoved reporter John McCormack […]
