I love the way every time Martha Coakley attempts to correct the missteps in her campaign she ends up amplifying them.

Portrayed as a hack put up by the party machine who can’t be bothered campaigning with real voters, she busses in Obama, Kerry, and various minor Kennedys for a rally at a private school.

Revealed as a dimwit who can barely string a coherent sentence together on war and foreign policy, she fires back that she only took her position on Afghanistan because the idiot primary voters made her do it.

Hammered as the emblem of a lazy out-of-touch one-party state whose ruling establishment takes power for granted, she issues a press release complaining about Election Day irregularities dated the day before the election.

Democrats do what they have to do, but she better have a good case here because the difference between Massachusetts and Coleman/Franken in Minnesota is that this time round the Dems’ tired old jiggery-pokery is part of the rap against them.
