Brown v Coakley: How Political Losers Lose And Winners Win

Via Michelle Malkin with some new poll results that look very encouraging for Scott Brown.

Bombshell: Brown leads Coakley in MA Senate race

The Massachusetts Senate race is now a toss up.

Buoyed by a huge advantage with independents and relative disinterest from Democratic voters in the state, Republican Scott Brown leads Martha Coakley 48-47.

There are various ways to either win or lose in politics. Martha Coakley seems to be putting on a seminar in what it takes to lose a campaign. She neglected the electorate during a crucial phase of the short campaign, now she is coddling up to the same corrupt Washington influences via K Street that have contributed so much to this nation's decline, taking politics away from the people and placing it in the hands of the special interests on either side.

She doesn't simply represent an unsatisfactory yesterday for Massachusetts, in a sense, she's worse. She's offered nothing much new and believes a legacy of failure and name recognition without doing much work will be enough to get her through.

Meanwhile, Scott Brown has been busy engaging the people and talking about ideas to help get America and Massachusetts back on the right track for the future. That's what a winner in politics usually does. But supporters would be kidding themselves to believe a win for Brown is in the bag.

Winners also continue to fight and fight hard right till the end in whatever way they can. If you want to be part of that hopefully wining effort, you can explore the various opportunities for doing so via Scott Brown's campaign website.

Or you can sit on your hands like Martha Coakley and losers do. Just don't complain when you don't happen to like who comes out on top. A lack of citizen effort now and throughout 2010 won't only make the Scott Browns in politics losers - it'll make you the honest hard working American citizen who wants real change not just talk from politicians losers, as well.

The only way for you to genuinely make a difference is to get involved.

I gave again & will stay up on Tuesday following the results.

Go Vote Conservative.

[Kelly]

Talk to EVERYBODY you see (who votes in MA) and ask them to vote for Scott Brown on January 19th. Ask everyone in your family, all your friends, the people you work with, the postman, hairdresser, gas station attendant, bank teller, cash register lady, guy at the hardware store, manicurist - OK, you get the picture. Tell everyone how important this special election is. I ask everyone I talk to: "Don't you want to be part of a historic upset??!"

Better yet, vote ahead of time by getting an absentee ballot at your town hall. That way, bad weather or last minute emergency wont't keep you from voting.

Sent him money today!

love to see the demographics based on sex...

I'd imagine coakley is going to win the women's vote, but I would geuss that the male vote is actually the largest differential.

I'm still skeptical, but not as much after nj governor race.

Here's a very important thing that PPP pointed out about Brown's support:

"-In a trend that’s going to cause Democrats trouble all year, voters disgusted with both parties are planning to vote for the one out of power. Perhaps the most remarkable thing about Brown’s standing is that only 21% of Massachusetts voters have a favorable opinion of Congressional Republicans…but at the same time only 33% view Congressional Democrats favorably. And among voters who have a negative take on both parties, who account for more than 20% of the electorate, Brown leads 74-21."

The RNC and GOP establishment is no longer a positive factor but a negative factor in getting Republicans elected. People are just voting anti-incumbent. Brown better remember that.

America is so ready for a new party.

[Logic]

Brown seems to be winning on the electronic front. I have friends in Mass. who say this guy has got a great e-team. I really haven't done the foot work myself to see, but I believe this is going to be the new way to win elections. Light a fire under the blogosphere, get going on the twitter and facebook, ???, Profit!

If Scott Brown comes within 8-10 points of victory in in democorrupt Assachusetts that signals that evey incumbent Senate democreep in November is on the chopping block. Drawers are certainly being soiled by Deadfish, Axelrat, and the marxist tools around B+ Odumber.
It seems Rush Limbaugh is correct in saying that the democorrupt party is imploding with its blind support of Odumber's death care. If Brown wins expect Deadfish, B+, and Axelrat to create a crisis and play the martial law number to stop elections in November. The democorrupt leftist 'vanguards" have no intention of ever handing over power to those who the voters incorrectly choose.

[Jayne on the left coast]

I made a contribution to Scott's campaign. I live in SO. CA. Not a cent to the RNC, I will only give to candidates like Scott.

[Rick]

Look I gave money to Brown even though I live out of state. Your shrill temper tantrum will not get him elected and will not get me to give more. CALM DOWN have some dip!!!

[montee]

Wait. Didn't PPP predict a huge blowout for Hoffman in New York. Once bitten twice shy. I don't like how things are looking. In New York while Hoffman was trailing he had all the momentum, but once polls started showing him ahead, things started to slowdown. It going to be important to pretend that these poll results don't exist and carry on as usual till d-day.

[HANOI JOHN KERRY]

We will win, we ALWAYS do in MA. In 1994, Romney could not even knock-off Teddy.

To make the victory even more more sweet, Coakley was an early supporter of Hillary Clinton, and stuck with her right up to the Convention. She fought to have Florida and Michigan’s votes counted.

[FenelonSpoke]

I think Florida and Michigan's votes should have been counted and the way Obama stole the nomination from Hillary reprehensible, but even the Hillbuzz peopple (strong Hillary supporters) are supporting Brown, as I expect will a number of registred Democrats disgusted at their party will too. I'm a recovering liberal who voted for McCain and I would vote for Brown if I lived in that state.

[drjohn]

I wish this would work, but I doubt that Massachusetts is about to allow a free election. Maybe we should call in the UN to monitor all elections in Massachusetts.

And Minnesota.

[Mr.Sauce]

Hillbuzz: "We are telling you that Democrats are terrified about this Senate race."

Yeah, it's from Democrats, but I found it a worthwhile read.

[James]

The whole agenda behind the Health Care Reform Bill, is not better health care, the real purpose is to transfer people’s hard earned money to the power elite in DC and big corporations, YOUNG FOLKS will be obligated by force of law to buy health insurance they do not want and cannot afford or pay a fine and go to jail. Medicare will be slashed which will turn Seniors into second class citizens when it comes to health care. The whole bill is a huge tax on the middle class with no concomitant benefit. The Bill is riddled with back room dirty deals that maggot like politicians who feed on the body politic are hatching under the cover of darkness. The polls already show the majority of the pubic are against this bill. Remember the draft? that wasn't even a universal mandate. This Bill will impoverish Americans and turn them into slaves of State. The Democrats who are ignoring the will of the people all must go. They are all scum and should be driven out of office. Young folks, seniors and the Middle Class need to VOTE FOR BROWN for Senate in Massachusetts if they don’t want to be screwed over by the Democrats.

[Gene Terrell]

I lived in Massachusetts for almost 30 years before escaping. I usually found that Democrats ran unopposed, so I did lots of "write-ins". There was rarely a remote chance of beating any Democrat, much less a Kennedy family supported Dem. I now live in Maine and consider myself an Independent, who votes for the candidate rather than the party. I find we are facing the same challenges in Maine that MA faces.

I contributed to Brown's campaign and am making calls to MA voters on his behalf. I think he has a valid chance.

That said, I wonder what it will take to keep the SEIU and ACORN from stealing the election with phony votes, if it is really close.

Support Scott Brown in any way you can wherever you are from. This is as important for the rest of the country as it is for MA.

[sam]

Don't be surprised if the Boston Globe comes out with yet another phony "poll" showing Coaley with a "safe" margin.Does anyone even bother to read that rag anymore???

[Dave B]

Being from Massachusetts I can speak from experience that most elections result in Democrat victories of candidates that spew the same old talking points. That has been the formula for victory because there is no real opposition other than a couple of radio stations and one newspaper. They rely on voter ignorance, empathy, a sense of helplessness that leads to voters voting for whatever they can get for themselves. Public employees are petrified to vote for a Republican. This election feels different. We're pissed off and ready for a big change. I think Brown can win.

[JF]

Hopefully Scott Brown wins so obama/kennedy-care can be stopped. The simple fact is; Scott Brown will listen to us tax payers', Brown will help us and work with us... Coakley will listen to obama, kerry, the kennedy's, lobbyist and the democratic leadership, she doesn't give a damn about the people. Her record (look it up), clearly, shows that she doesn't care about regular people.
Scott Brown must win for Massachusetts to be taken serious again and for the country to be put back on the correct track again.

-The thinking of everyone I know in the South Shore

[JF]

I wonder if that pussy, Davis Gergonzo, will ask Coakley something tough like, "Martha, what's your favorite color?" "See you at the lobbyist party Martha."

[JEFFREY SCHREMBS]

SHOCKER THAT OBAMA WENT TO THE AID OF COAKLEY AFTER DENYING HE WOULD FOR WEEKS.
ISN'T IT JUST "WONDERFUL" HOW OBAMA CAN TAKE TIME TO MEDIATE A FRIENDS ARREST, OR PLAY GOLF 17 TIMES SINCE ELECTED, OR TAKE 11 VACATIONS SINCE ELECTED, OR LIE ABOUT BOWING TO THE MUSLIM OIL RICH SAUDI KING IN SPITE OF VIDEOTAPE, AND LIE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT HEALTH INSURANCE COVERING ILLEGAL ALIENS, OR LIE ABOUT TRANSPARENCY, OR VIOLATING THE CONSTITUTION WITH SEPARATION OF POWERS, OR APPOINT ERIC HOLDER WHO HAS A HISTORY OF PARDONING TERRORISTS AND WHOSE LAW FIRM REPRESENTS 12 GITMO DETAINEES AND DISMISSED CLEAR CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST THE BLACK PANTHERS WHO NEVER DEFENDED THEIR ACTIONS, OR HAS SPENT OUR CHILDRENS CHILDREN MONEY, ALL THE WHILE OUR BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN ARE DYING AND HIS RULE OF ENGAGEMENT WOULD NOT ALLOW LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT TO DO IT'S JOB LET ALONE DEFEAT MUSLIM TERRORISTS?
PATHETIC ANTI-AMERICAN SOCIALISTS AND THEY ADMIT IT OPENLY BUT THE MAIN STREET MEDIA IS JUST AS CORRPUT AND BLIND.

GO BROWN!
