Quote of the year... so far

I have been closely watching this U.S. Senate special election in Massachusetts where Republican Scott Brown and Democrat Martha Coakley are battling to gain control of the seat vacated by Ted Kennedy when he died last summer.

Notice I say "the seat vacated by Ted Kennedy." If you haven't already watched it, or if you want to feel that sense of satisfaction by watching it again, watch and listen to Brown's absolutely brilliant response to debate moderator David Gergen when Gergen refers to "Teddy Kennedy's seat."



Meanwhile, Martha Coakley seems to be doing everything she can to lose this race in a state that is extremely friendly to Democrats. After one of her campaign ads misspelled her state as "Massachussetes" the other day, her campaign is taking another hit after one of her campaign aides appeared to assault a reporter from the Weekly Standard by shoving the reporter into a metal railing, and then blocking the reporter's way in order to keep the reporter from asking Coakley more embarassing questions about her corrupt ways. The shove into the rail is admittedly hard to make out, but there is no mistaking the harassment the aide gives the reporter after the reporter gets back up.



Boston politics the Chicago Way! I hope Brown takes Coakley down in next week's election.

Good Day to You, Sir
