re: #122 Bagua

Ha, don’t get too carried away with ‘bad candidate’ meme. Coakley was well liked in Mass., she was elected Attorney General after all and 1 million people voted for her to be Senator.

The poison was 0bama, pure and simple.

You’re flat wrong, and the zero is cute, but it doesn’t help. Bad campaign = loser. Brown ran a good campaign, and campaigned his ass off. Coakely believed the hype, sat back and thought she had it in the bag. BECAUSE of exactly what you’re saying, she was well liked, so she didn’t run a good ship. Brown was hungry, he wanted it more, he worked harder for it. She is the very definition of a bad candidiate. it’s not a meme, it’s simple fact.

Unless you believe that campaign stops aren’t necessary? Unless you think you can blow references to the Red Sox and have the voters not think you’re out of touch?
