The Wall Street Journal has a lengthy article today destroying Coakley's credibility and integrity.

2008?
Wasn't that the year the Democrats tried the "light-skinned, but unqualified" strategy?

I hate to have to correct you, jack..... :(

It was the "light-skinned, but unqualified and with no Negro dialect unless needed" strategy.


Carry on. :salute:

Coakley Risks Offending Red Sox Nation, Calls Schilling 'Another Yankee Fan'

FOXNews.com
Updated January 16, 2010

In such a close race, anything could tip the balance, and Massachusetts is devoted to its baseball team

Martha Coakley, the Democratic candidate in Tuesday's special election for Massachusetts senator, didn't do her campaign any favors Friday by dismissing Boston Red Sox hero Curt Schilling as a "Yankees fan."

In such a close race, anything could tip the balance, and Massachusetts is devoted to its baseball team, especially after it reversed years of bad fortune in 2004 by defeating the Yankees in the playoffs and going on to win the World Series with Schilling's help.

The gaffe came in a talk radio interview Friday night. Coakley, who is vying to fill the late Ted Kennedy's Senate seat, took a swipe at former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani for dropping in Massachusetts to campaign for the Republican candidate, Scott Brown. Giuliani is well known as a Yankees fan.

But Coakley hit a foul ball when the show's host, Dan Rea, noted that Schilling is supporting Brown.

"And another Yankee fan," she said, apparently stunning Rea.

"Curt Schilling, a Yankee fan?" Rea asked, prompting Coakley to quickly backtrack.

"Ok, I'm wrong," she said.

"The Red Sox great pitcher of the bloody sock?" Rea asked, referring to the World Series game that Schilling pitched with an ankle injury that caused blood to stain his sock.

But Coakley swung back.

"Well, he's not there anymore," she said.

Click here to listen to an excerpt of the interview.

Coakley spokesman Alex Zaroulis told Politico that it was a "very, very deadpan" joke. Another Coakley aide told Politico in an e-mail that Red Sox fans are among Coakley supporters and that "Curt Schilling has been involved in a lot of strikeouts over time. I guess Martha whiffed on that joke."

But Schilling, who helped Sen. John McCain win the New Hampshire primary in 2008 by campaigning with him there, wasn't amused.

"I've been called a lot of things ... but never, I mean never, could anyone make the mistake of calling me a Yankee fan," he said on his blog. "Well, check that. If you didn't know what the hell is going on in your own state, maybe you could…"

Obama stands for HATE

Hate Wall Street, Hate the Insurance Companies, Hate the Drug Companies, Hate the Other Party.

A vote for Obama, a vote for Coakley is a vote for HATE

in the new post-partisan America

Brown Win Tuesday Causes Huge Stock Rally As Investors Celebrate 'Pelosi Politburo Emasculation'

Read more: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-shepp ... z0cv0g9AG5

Former Barack Obama supporter Jim Cramer on Friday said the stock market would have a huge rally if Scott Brown defeats Martha Coakley in Tuesday's special senatorial election in Massachusetts.

"I think investors who are nervous about the dictatorship of the Pelosi proletariat will feel at ease, and we could have a gigantic rally off a Coakley loss and a Brown win," said Cramer on Friday's "Mad Money."

"It will be a signal that a more pro-business, less pro-labor government could be in front of us."

The often outspoken CNBCer marvelously declared it a "Pelosi politburo emasculation" (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript):

Fox News reports Scott Brown has a 5% to 10% lead in the most recent polls. That is hard to believe, but the fact that Scott Brown is close is an earthquake.

It is certainly a referendum on Obama who has personally campaigned for Coakley and a referendum on the healthcare proposal.

That is astonishing!

Massachusetts currently has nothing but Democratic Congressmen and hasn't elected a Republican Congressperson since 1994.

Let's hope bho' is as effective in Massachusetts as he was in Copenhagen.

Obama was seen “working the streets” for the Coakley campaign.
