physicsguy: Actually, that report about the Obama crowd was later corrected; he did fill the place, and there was an overflow crowd as well.

I didn’t hear the pickup truck comment, but if it’s true, then it’s just one more instance of the arrogance that BHO, and most liberals hold the common people. Totally in line the the bitter clingers line from the campaign. It will backfire and the report will rival anything heard from a poorly tuned 1985 F150.

Also, just saw this morning that BHO’s hall filled just 2500 out of 3000 seats, but Brown overflowed a 3000 seat hall in nearby Worcester.

He should have given one of his patented soaring but utterly vapid speeches about building a better America for us and our children, a world where dogs and cats live together in harmony, but that he needed our help, he needed Coakley to help him fight the good fight, and to win the fight for the memory of their fallen hero, the Hero of Chappaquiddick …
LOL but you make a good point. What is he doing getting down in the muck? Just how incompetent a politician is he really? I’m beginning to suspect that due to the special circumstances of his election to the Presidency and of his machine-aided Chicago career, we could be watching the most incompetent politician ever to become President.

You’re right neo! Martha should know by now that people already know the differences between her and Brown. This campaign is really getting dirty and she has stained her bad reputation for such tactic as to distort the truth.

I do believe that Obama and the Democrats are having their Wily E. Coyote moment.

They have raced over the edge of the cliff and finally noticed that they are standing in mid-air and it’s a long, long way down.

It’s sheer arrogance, ineptitude and hubris that has brought them here. Obama said more than he knew when he declared about health care reform, “We are on the precipice of achievement that’s eluded Congresses, presidents for generations.”

What a maroon!

On Intrade, it’s 60-40 Brown over Coakley. It’s looking very, very good!

Which is what I figured when Coakley went so crazy over the top negative. True, she’s an incredibly poor campaigner, but this had desperation written all over it.

I talked to a friend in Boston and he said the TV is just saturated with negative ads, so much so that he think it’s boomeranging on Coakley.

The Daily Kos kiddies aren’t talking horse race anymore, just complaining about what a “scumbag” Brown is. No mention of leg tingles, 3-D chess, or the godliness of Barack Obama at the Boston rally today.

Fingers crossed, knock on wood, and all that. We may be looking at a whole new ballgame come Wednesday.

Bad use of italics-closing. Sigh

Baklava, working in a 90% liberal profession, I feel your pain. Verbal comments are much harder to take out, but I started pushing back on the emails a few years ago. My first response: political humor is not appropriate. Liberal retort: It's not really political humor it's about this country's problems. My response to the second forwarded joke: If this keeps up, I'm going to answer, and no one's going to like it. Liberal retort: (none.)

It’s official: Obama’s an idiot.

Coakley has already gone negative. The comrades love that, but they’re already in the bag for her, and her negativity has reportedly put off a lot of people. Brown also seems personally pretty popular, so going negative is a poor strategy for Obama to adopt.

Instead he makes snide pickup truck references. Stupid. Profoundly stupid. And therefore utterly characteristic.
