Good Morning America
Scott Brown just defeated Martha Coakley and won a Massachusetts senate seat which has evaded Republicans for nearly six decades. Hang onto your hat. Here comes the spin and distortions and political contortions.
Fact: Every Democrat, Republican and Independent knew the result of the special election, to fill the seat vacated by Kennedy, was a done deal. Short of butchering her husband or spitting on Kennedy's grave, Coakley's path to DC was strewn with roses.
Fact: The primaries in Massachusetts are always hotly contested. Winning any primary election, for the House or Senate or dog catcher, automatically guarantees the Democratic contender a smooth ride to the finish line. Martha Coakley crushed her opponents, receiving 73% of the votes cast in the primary.
Fact: There was no need for Martha to mount a campaign beyond a few perfunctory appearances. Her verbal gaffs were immaterial. In a state that only recognizes one party a Democratic incumbent can be comatose and win. Contenders merely have to be able to sit up and take nourishment and demand higher taxes. She could do both.
Fact: In mid-December, 2009 Martha Coakley, without any serious campaigning, held a 20% margin of victory over Scott Brown. She just had to hang around for the election to confirm the obvious.
Fact: Scott Brown's political thumping by Coakley was rear ended by Mr. Obama, Pelosi and Reid. The cesspool deals they cut with Nebraska's Senator Ben Nelson and the unions to salvage Obama Care turned a de facto landside for Coakley into a sporting contest.
Fact: Scott Brown ran as the forty-first vote against Obama Care, for lower taxes and stronger national security. He waged his campaign against the Obama agenda. Coakley just happened to be the local candidate who represented Obama, Pelosi and Reid.
Fact: Scott Brown did not run as a Republican, nor did he profess loyalty to the Tea Baggers; he ran as an Independent under the Republican label. Although the GOP hierarchy will beg him to be their spokesman, he will not be their point man.
Fact: Scott Brown and his trusty pickup truck gave voice to working Americans. He gave them the opportunity to vote for themselves. He made it okay for ordinary people to fight for their right to be heard and be reckoned with.
Fact: The Democratic Party is so out of touch with working Americans that it actually ran commercials promising the end of Obama Care if Brown was elected. These arrogant, insulated weasels confirmed that Brown represented safe passage from a hated abomination.
Fact: Scott Brown saved the careers of many Democrats seated in Congress. His election proved that Marxism is not in vogue on Main Street. His election excuses sitting Democrats from following Obama, Pelosi and Reid. He made it safe for them to say "no thank you" to political suicide.
Fact: Scott Brown's election showed all Americans that the United States is not the property of the Republicans nor the Democrats. He woke the slumbering masses It's a new day in Washington, DC.
So good morning America, it's good to see you awake.
