Polls released this morning startle by indicating that Scott Brown, the underdog Republican has now pulled ahead of anointed Kennedy successor, Martha Coakley by 4 percentage points in the race for the People's Senate Seat in Massachusetts (aka the Kennedy Seat). That's outside the three point margin of error and astonishingly a 35 percentage point shift in the last two weeks!
Coakley has done no favors for herself with a lackluster effort fueled by assurances that it was in the bag. She's got an abrasive persona with a droning, aggressive courtroom style of speaking that simply doesn't endear her to voters. Her gaffe on declaring Afghanistan free of Taliban and/or al Qaeda was noticed even by the mainstream media. She's come out strongly against the people in her contining vow to support the current healthcare reform debacle and simply isn't making any progress in retaining the independent and moderate voters she needs to win.
The effort to get the Messiah to step in as deus ex machina has collapsed as memories of New Jersey and Virginia's recent elections coupled with the disappointment of the Olympic selection intervention and the non-success at Copenhagen for a frozen out global warming treaty remain fresh. His magic is gone.
So, they unleash the other left-wing headliners like this articulate spokesperson on the issues:
Not a Putz-Head But a Tea-Bagger This Time
With friends like Chuckie, who needs enemies?
