Well, speaking as a “middle aged angry white man” I am truly thankful that these folks are not my friends.

Believe it or not, I’ve been keeping an eye on the Senate race in Massachusetts (did I spell that right?*).  In what should have been a slam dunk for the dems to replace Ted Kennedy with one of their own, Republican Scott Brown is giving Martha Coakley a very competitive race**.   In fact, in the bluest of the blue states, he is leading in several polls.  Will he win on Tuesday?  Maybe, maybe not.  But the fact that the race is even in question shows that more and more voters have had just about enough of the crap being peddled in Washington.

So, just what kind of person is this Coakley?  Well, the Wall Street Journal has a fascinating story about her role in one of the most infamous prosecutions in American history.   That she still defends her actions today reveals much about her character (or lack thereof).  Hmmm, maybe that makes her well-suited to replace the Senator from Chappaquiddick.

*Coakley  misspelled “Massachusetts” in one of her campaign ads.

** As Scott Brown famously stated during a campaign debate “With all due respect, it’s not the Kennedy’s seat and it’s not the Democrats’ seat, it’s the people’s seat.”
