Brad Friedman is drawing attention to the fact that those same Diebold machines which may have instrumental in electing George W. Bush in 2004 are still in place in MA, which of course raises the ugly specter of voter fraud. (You can read his very informative post by clicking the title.)
Martha Coakley's campaign has already alleged that there are voting irregularities, including two cases of pre-marked ballots for Scott Brown, and has issued this statement.
MEDIA ADVISORY: COAKLEY CAMPAIGN TO DISCUSS INTEGRITY OF ELECTION
Multiple Reports Of Ballots Pre-Marked For Scott BrownBOSTON - Following multiple independent reports of ballots being given to voters pre-marked for Republican Scott Brown, Coakley Campaign Manager Kevin Conroy and Attorney Marc Elias will hold a press conference in the Sheraton Grand Ballroom at 5:30 pm.
I think with so much riding on this election we can all rest assured that this will NOT be settled anytime soon. I predict that we will still be trying to determine who the new Senator from Massachusetts is right up until the weekend.
Update: With 40% of precincts reporting we now have Brown at 52.6% and Coakley at 46.4%. It does not look very good.
Update 2: Coakley concedes! Well so much my for my Nate Silver impersonation. Martha Coakley wasted no time in calling Scott Brown and congratulating him on his victory.
I guess it is only Republicans who refuse to admit their loss.
However having said that if the Republican candidate won fair and square then by all means the Democrat should step aside and let that person take their seat without a bunch of unnecessary drama. I just hope that after the dust settles we are all certain that there was no fraud involved in this election.
Update 3: Brad Friedman "congratulates" Martha Coakley for her swift concession.
Several supporters of Democrat Martha Coakley were injured during her rush to get to the phone as quickly as possible in order to concede the race for the U.S. Senate in MA to Scott Brown even before AP called the race in favor of the Republican.
I have to say that I was also amazed at Coakley's rush to concede. It would have been nice if she had at least waited until all of the votes were counted. Like I said before, I just hope we don't come to regret her impatience.
At the very least it would have been nice to put off listening to this ridiculous woman gloat for another couple of days.
Do you like hearing that Democrats? No? Well then you sure as hell better get your shit together.
Good, more time is better for the healthcare bill. Stall 'em.
ReplyDeleteI know theirs was a Gov race but is this destined to go Franken Coleman long? Hopefully not, or hopefully so?
ReplyDeleteAnd Sauerkraut, I know that I blasted Coakley a few days ago, but darn it, I was frustrated by any semblance of "complacency" from any Democrat, either in MA or nationwide. Didn't mean to offend but darnit, let's keep this ball rolling. We all have job to do, especially those running for office.
Leaving soapbox....
...and Minnesota proved that it could take MONTHS!
ReplyDeleteI think we are in trouble. This is what the Republicans excel at, stealing elections.
ReplyDeleteWin or lose in MA tonight (or if it goes to court), Scott Brown will be running for President in 2012. They found the "prettiest" one they could find, new face, TeaBagger credentials, has no problem telling lies, the Cosmo spread was a plus (like they pushed Palin's sex appeal). Brown is a male Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteMark my words.
Re: Minnesota, Al Franken vs Norm Coleman was a US Senate election.
ReplyDeleteRe: Coakley vs Brown in Massachusetts, what is up with the female politicians these days? Talk about playing right into the negative stereotypes. It's disappointing.
DEM AG says nothing to this:
ReplyDeleteThe Massachusetts secretary of state is discounting reports of voter irregularities in the state's Senate special election.
A spokesman for Secretary of State William Galvin said Tuesday two reports of spoiled ballots could not be verified or found to be widespread.
In one case, someone voting in Cambridge claimed a ballot had already been marked for Republican Scott Brown. There was no way to verify the claim, but the ballot was destroyed.
In another case, a person in Boston reported finding a ballot inside a privacy folder also marked for Brown. Officials say it may have been left inadvertently by an earlier voter.
Aides to Democrat Martha Coakley called a news conference to raise voter awareness of the concerns.
Brown leading in early returns from urban locations. Once rural and suburbs come in, game over.
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous. We have been arguing about votes and voter registration credibility for decades now. . .from all parties.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for stalling under the law. . both parties do it, it's righteous. But come on now, the weaknesses inherent in our voting technology? Positively unAmerican. . .there is no excuse.
Man on the Moon comes to mind, here?
Um, Registered Democrat, for the record.'
Thanks for covering this Gryphen. The more attention, the better.
ReplyDeleteWhen the results come in and Coakley is not shown as the winner, it will not be because of voter fraud or any problem with the machines. If Coakley loses, and that seems to be the case based on what I've been told, then it will be because she got complacent and arrogant (see my thoughts on my blog about that), and simply did not campaign. I lived in MA for years and the people there get really pissed if they feel they've been dissed.
ReplyDeleteI have a high opinion of Coakley but she really blew a sure thing. It was her's. But it wasn't hers until the votes were counted. She apparently forgot that the real election was AFTER she handed Mikey Capuano his arse. And she forgot that she needed to reach out to his supporters because those folks don't just get mad. In this case, they will be bragging about how the got even.
Wait until Capuano's supporters realize that they shot themselves in the nuts.
Massachusetts will not take months... a few days at the most. Unless the teabaggers deliberately piss him off, their sec't of state will not allow a circus to take over.
ReplyDeleteWhen I go to my ATM , it's a Diebold. I get my picture taken and a time stamped receipt with all pertinent info that I was there at a specific location.All in a matter of seconds. NOW ,
ReplyDeleteWHY IN THE FUCK can't this be done at the polling place.Same company makes both machines.I get so pissed everytime this happens.
Coakley is getting whipped 53 -46% with 60% counted
ReplyDeleteIf Brown wins there's going to be an aftershock throughout the democratic party. If an unknown can overcome a 30-point deficit in the polls, what will candidates do who are now in races that can be close?
ReplyDeleteThe answer: go to the mattresses and distance themselves from the White House.
This is a kill shot for the health care bill and conceivably the administration who grossly underestimated the gravity of the situation.
"Brown is a male Sarah Palin... ."
ReplyDeleteI suppose--if you discount a 30-year career in the Army Guard's JAG office where he's a lieutenant colonel, possesses a J.D. from Boston College, and who has served in the State Senate for six years.
Other than that, I suppose you're right he's just like Sarah Palin--a major thorn in the left's side.
Coakley calls Brown and concedes
ReplyDeletewww.boston.com
OOps, I goofed and lost all cred here at Immoral when I stated Franken Coleman was Governor race. My bad, sorry, sorry, sorry. I actually know better but don't know why I said that.....
ReplyDeleteGosh. I was so wrong! It's 9:22 p.m. and it's over.
ReplyDeleteAll over
ReplyDeleteCoakley just conceded
They just called the race for Brown, with 75% of precincts in. And Coakley apparently called him to concede the race. So, notsomuch with the voting irregularity hope, sadly.
ReplyDelete*HEADDESKDESKDESK* I am actually embarassed to be from MA today...
So...is Brown 2012 the new fear? He's now officially the Republican Golden Boy of the moment...
On Rachel Maddow, it was just announced that the AP is projecting Brown to win ... and I've not heard anything "mainstream" about alleged voting irregularities noted in Brad Blog (and Plum Line). Finding this pretty confusing ...
ReplyDeleteNo cable TV for me for a couple of weeks. Immagine the gloat at Fox.
ReplyDeleteBeing a tennis fan and Australian
I'll have something to watch during this time.
Most of my blog spots are out also.
LOL.
I don't understand why the f%%% the Dems have not YEARS AGO gotten rid of the Diebold machines. It has been proven over and over, beyond reasonable doubt, that they *CAN* and *WILL* be hacked. The Dems have only themselves to blame for this loss and other 'losses' before.
ReplyDeleteThey have also gotten my LAST $$$! I will NOT contribute to ANY party anymore, and the last time some one called me for a donation, I virtually felt sorry for them, because they got an earfull from me!
Hope this is a wake-up call for Dems. We have become complacent.
ReplyDeleteIMO Brown's like Palin because he says he's pro-choice to win this election but he introduced a bill banning rape kits being distributed in ER's just like Palin did in Wasilla. He's an exhibitionist - we've now got a US Senator who posed nude in Cosmo! Geez. No class. He encourages hate and then lies about it such as the video of his supporter saying "shove a hair curler up Coakley's butt" and Brown says "we can do that". And that sleazy, slimy smile. I already can't stand him. Ohyeah, IMO he's just like Palin although he actually does have an education and obviously he's much more intelligent.
ReplyDeleteGuess again... that Cheney disciple aka Scott Brown.. won the election just three hours after polls closed... SHAME ON MASSACHUSETTS!
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean Democrats are going to start showing some interest in the congressional elections? Or not.
ReplyDeleteAnon at 518, responding to "Brown is a male Sarah Palin... ."
ReplyDelete"I suppose--if you discount a 30-year career in the Army Guard's JAG office where he's a lieutenant colonel, possesses a J.D. from Boston College, and who has served in the State Senate for six years."
...ooh, and don't forget, he posed naked for a women's magazine. That's always good to have on a resume.
Rethugs have no concrete ideas, just major cash, loud voices and a marketing genius in Rove. It may be possible in a few months that some MA residents will ask what they've done when they realize Golden Boy doesn't have their best interests at heart, and isn't "just one of the people" (a la Palin) with all his pricey properties and Wall Street connections. Hey, isn't he AGAINST regulating Wall Street--hmm? I agree, however, that he will be the Thugs' best bet for 2012--pretty face, adept at lying and is another sock puppet for the Extreme Right.
ReplyDeleteSomeone (didn't catch the name) just reported on RM that it can take up to 10 days to install Brown--giving the Dems time to push HC through beforehand. There may be foul play ahead by the Party of No in trying to adjust this critical timeline.
DO IT NOW!! IMPROVE THE HC BILL THROUGH RECONCILIATION!!
People of Massachusetts have theirs so why give a shit about anyone else. You sure showed us.
ReplyDeleteBROWN has been elected.....sad to say
ReplyDeleteI heard Palin would be on Greta, so I switched over to hear her out of curiosity. Same old Sarah--nothing new. She said "commonsense conservatism" more times than I could count. She is so stuck on those two words plus "planks" and "status quo". I bet the teabaggers will validated for the way they have acted and will continue to do so.
ReplyDeleteJust sick about this race...
ReplyDeletelistening to queen esther gloat on greta's show...feel soo dirty..need a shower...
thanks for all you do gryph..
Don't fret AKPetMom - many off us off-balance tonight due to MA outcome. You still have creds with me!
ReplyDeleteI know Brown seems like the teabagger's Golden Boy tonight - but I think the bloom will soon be off the rose with them: He is pro-choice and they have zero tolerance for that.
Other good news: Having to count on Lieberman for the so-called 60 votes was futile anyhow. The Dems can stop kissing traitor Joe's ass.
a sad day, for sure.
ReplyDeleteeven with all the polls, I was hoping Mass would do the right thing.
We simply must continue fighting for Health Care.
OMG. She's a Palin clone!
ReplyDeleteCoakley: "You don’t always win all the time but you put in your best efforts because sometimes it’s more important to travel hopefully than to arrive. And we will continue to travel hopefully, I know that."
We can laugh our asses off at her, giggle at her lack of knowledge, make fun of her convoluted thinking, but the win for Scott Brown may just be the clarion call for her to ascend to the presidential nomination.
ReplyDeleteThink about it. He is really no different in his views than she is and the normally blue state of MA just elected him to fill the seat vacated by TED KENNEDY of all people. The voters bought whatever schtick Brown was selling so if he can do it why not that Dipstick from Wasilla?
I almost fainted when my neighbor suggested a Palin/Brown ticket in 2012. She was serious.
OMG, pass the Tylenol.
I supported Brown. Sent him $$ too. I'm thrilled he ran and won. That said, Martha Coakley was graceful and very much a lady in her loss. I was much impressed.
ReplyDeleteGood race, good game.
Gryph, you gotta get turned on to drinking Mate! (pronounced Ma-Tay). It's a awesome argentine drink. Try the chocolate 'flavor'. Seriously. It's awesome stuff!
ReplyDeleteGlad Brown won, But hope I still have friends here.
Really, try the Mate! (Whole foods carry's it).
Listening to Brown's speech, it's clear to me that he'll be running for WH! Same path that Obama took - IL state senate, now US Senator. Here it comes in 2012.
ReplyDeleteFaux' screen crawler says "Brown's 41st seat will permit filibuster of Obama's priorities". Yep.
So, if Scott Brown won, we have established that doing nude spreads in mags is acceptable, nothing to go off the deep end about. Nothing to suggest someone isn't a good father or anything, not a good role model, not someone with questionable morals who shouldn't be leadin' the people. Posing nude in magazines (and presumable being paid for it) is A-OK, I mean, if an elected senator can do it, it must be morally acceptable
ReplyDeleteActually I don't necessarily disagree with that general premise. I just don't think people should be judged under different standards.
If Republicans embrace Scott Brown, then they can hardly decry actions of their enemies (Democrats?) for the same behavior.
Ergo, nude posing is OK, not porn, not detrimental to a political campaign. Yippee!!!
I don't know what is going on with the Dems. Remember Kerry? He also rushed to concede - even before midnight, and even though it was OBVIOUS that Ohio was rigged.
ReplyDeleteNeither of the parties get ANY more PENNY out of me. I *AM* FEDUP!!!
I am glad that Scott Brown won. There is still some hope that the people's voice is heard and things will that we do not want will not be crammed down our throats.
ReplyDeleteFor all of you who are having fits about Scott Brown posing for Cosmopolitan and how "classless" that was, I seem to recall that you did not consider it classless when Levi Johnston did it. Why the double standard?
BTW, the report about "voter fraud" from Coakley's campaign was dated January 18th. I guess she is psychic.
ReplyDeleteBrown even has the Granny O'Palin screech down pretty good. And he's awfully long-winded also too.
ReplyDeleteI refuse to watch/listen to her. She makes my brain hurt.
I heard Sarah on Greta's show; she sounded terrible. So, instead of someone writing Sarah's face book posts for her, they will email her a script and she will phone it in. With that voice, and unable to respond to any kind of back-and-forth questions or conversaton, she is better off on face book.
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine a DEM having tried to run with the credentials THIS guy has(*Literally* Porn Star and beef cake, and then saying 'his daughters are available??? (Just read that from a commenter on hullaballoo))
ReplyDeleteROFL - I could only stomach the first 10 seconds of this clip, but more comedy gold: Greta says "As you listen to the concession stand of the AG here in Massachusetts..." Too much time at the ballpark Greta, you meant concession SPEECH.
ReplyDeleteI did visualize Palin on the phone surrounded by actual Fox political analysts holding up cue cards.
Looks like Keith Olbermann is getting some major push back from his MSNBC colleague over his commentary on Scott Brown: http://www.mediaite.com/online/olbermann-blasts-homophobic-racist-scott-brown-scarborough-fires-back/
ReplyDeleteBrown will be the talk show rising star. Palin is an aging ex-veep candidate with no political office. Right-wing media can't wait for the Palin replacement.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteI will never forgive the voters of Massachusetts for forcing us to suffer because of their shortsighted selfishness.
"Commense sense solutions", "Common sense this, common sense that...." That's getting to be really irritating!
ReplyDeleteAnd here Miss News Analyst is recommending the Dems to turn the page and get over it....hypocritical much?
Gryphen, You said to the Democrats: "Well then you sure as hell better get your shit together." I say, right on. I just sent a long, blistering email to my esteemed Democratic senator for Ohio with precisely that message.
ReplyDeleteI've voted in every election since 1961 (48 years!), and during that time I've always been a liberal/progressive Democrat. Quite frankly, I no longer recognize the world we live in. I know, I know: I'm getting old, our country is "in transition," etc. Yet the people who call themselves Democrats in Congress nowadays have revealed themselves to be sniveling, self-regarding cowards who have no interest in achieving unity and serving our country. I've never seen this happen in quite this way until now. They have opened the gates wide for the right-wing crazies, who are howling with glee at having further undermined Barack Obama.
On her Facebook page Sarah Palin lauds Scott Brown, saying he'll arrive in Washington, D.C., in a pickup truck. This yuppie US attorney who posed nude in Cosmo??? Please spare me. It's just another a media catch phrase that appeals to the lowest instincts of rabid know-nothings, and it's despicable.
To borrow a query from Andrew Sullivan: How could congressional Democrats have let this happen to our president?
Not unless they start booking Brown and Palin together and they get a little flirty chemistry thing going. The Bots would cream themselves at the mere thought of it. Brown/Palin or Palin/Brown '12? Hmmmm.....
ReplyDeleteYeah, where is the pickup thing coming from? Did he mention that in campaigning? That's so idiotic- she makes him sound like an arse. But I guess that's appealing to her crew- redneckedness.
ReplyDeleteThe Dems always blow themselves up. Always! They show up at the gunfight with a list of grievances. They're pathetic. The Republicans blow everybody else up and the TeaBaggers blow... well... whatever.
ReplyDeleteThis feels like a blow...I had such hopes for change. The Democrats blew it. I want reform, real reform and now we will get resistance. One more vote on the naysayers' side.
ReplyDelete"Yes, we can" seems like a whisper tonight.
The best part of the Greta/Sarah analysis exchange starts about 1:47--
ReplyDeleteGreta: "I look at it a little differently...I think she was torpedoed."
In other words, Greta says "I don't think your analysis holds water, Sarah. Maybe you should really read 'all of them' papers, any of them set in front of you, so you know what's really going on. Having Track Google stuff for you just isn't good enough!"
The pick up truck..yep, that was in one of his ads.
ReplyDeleteHis win will not only affect the health care reform, try climate control, financial regulatory reform and any other legislation written to help this country get back on its feet. Republicans: The party of no.
This is the start of a very scary two years, ending in a repug takeover in 2012. In every race, they will run the prettiest candidates, who will lie, out-bully, and win. Even though they say oxymoronic things like: 'take the country back' while also saying in the same sentence, 'the status quo is not acceptable'. Huh? ie, only regression is acceptable? What the public is looking for is politicians with balls who have convictions – even if those convictions are wrong. They prefer that to namby pamby politicians who have no convictions whatsoever, which is where the dem party seems to be these days. Very sad on all counts, but I'm just sayin' it like it is.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Massachusetts! You just put another lying Republican in the Senate. Weren't you listening when he lied about knowing ANYTHING about teabaggers?
ReplyDelete@ mlaiuppa
ReplyDeleteI said it on Mudflats, I'll say it here again. We do not need to go down the bitter road!
Painting an entire state like MA with one brush due to a lack lustre candidate and complacent bunch behind her - well, that's just silly. Take your frustration out on a rock (or mirror) and then get ready for the next round! You know - Rome wasn't built or torn down in a day.
Sarah latest tweet about Brown---"worked their butts off" in regards to his campaign
ReplyDelete"worked their butts off" --so lovely and so Presidential.
If the people of Massachusetts had not had their own health plan, do you think they would have voted this way? They risked no reform with this vote, but they could because they have what they need .
The House rethugs have Kevin McCathy running around looking for more Brownies. Brownie and Kevin are very much alike. Very slick politicians who say what they think the crowd wants to hear. The issues don't matter, it's all show and lies.
ReplyDeleteWhy do you think they did not have any exit polls?
ReplyDeleteNot all conservative blogs adore Mrs. Palin and her bots of like mindlessness. A good site to check out this one from Wasilla itself - http://syrin.vox.com/
ReplyDeleteAdd it to your 'Sarah Palin's least favorite blogs' list, Gryph!
Why does Greta call her GOVERNOR? She's not a governor - SHE QUIT!!!
ReplyDeleteKO, you are NOT alone.
ReplyDeleteThere are plenty of us who will always be adherents. That smug mug Scarborough and his lap dog Formica are going to be more intolerable than ever now. While I think you can be an annoying know-it-all trivia junkie -- like the sad caricature-of-himself Dennis Miller -- while wearing your sports commentating hat, your incisive, well-researched investigations on the political issues of the day are reminiscent of Mencken and Murrow.
Continue the good fight and tell it like it is!
Well, I barely slept a wink all night. I hope and pray this setback lights a fire under the Dems once and for all. It ought to be an interesting few weeks to see if there's a turnaround.
ReplyDeleteI do think the media had a huge influence on the outcome--three weeks ago, who heard of this guy except locals in MA? He had an amazing buildup by an expert PR team and national coverage 24/7.
The Rethugs: the party of UNcommon NONsense.
BTW--just heard there was another quake in Haiti--a 6.0--puts things in perspective.
The spineless dims have picked some duds for candidates lately. Governor in Va. and Senator in Mass., and probably others.
ReplyDeleteNot surprisingly, they did not campaign well, and the longer they were in view the lower they fell in the polls. Nor did the DNC, of the WH act like they cared much.
The RepoTaliban wants to win, the teabaggin’ rabble wants to destroy, the spineless dims are - well spineless. They had the electorate behind them full force up until the Senate destroyed the health care bill. Now they only have their party hacks.
If the dims leadership is not willing to extend itself for so important a seat as one for Senator, then they literally want to loose their 60 vote majority and to hell with their electorate, their jobs will be much easier now. They can’t win much of anything so they can just sell their souls and their electorate and stop pretending that they are not bought by special interests.
Their coffers will be full. Their numbers will again dwindle.
Palin is jumping on the Brown bandwagon... he asked her to stay away, and she just can't do it. They are nothing alike. Palin is a bottom feeding grifter. the other is a lawyer. ;)
ReplyDeleteHer greta 'anaylis' warrented a channel change ih my home. History channel had an excellent show on mud.
Congratulatoins to Brown. Proving that you can't run the baggers in every state and win. (actually, no state!)
I cannot begin to express my disgust with the Dominionists and stealth candidates foisted on an unsuspecting public by the religious right, but once again I want to caution that you are underestimating the Tea Partiers. (full disclosure - I am NOT one)
ReplyDeleteIt is a gross oversimplification to characterize these people as the farthest right fringe of the Rebiblican Party. Most absolutely believe that this abortion of a health care bill is a gross mistake, and so do I. I work in health care, and everyone there agrees it needs to change drastically, but this cobbled-together mishmash of special favors and exceptions is nothing IMHO but another tax.
I believe this bill will not become law. The Congress should take a deep breath, put together some committees of medical people and consumers and really do a thoughtful, complete overhaul - not some 2000-page unsurviveably expensive testament to political corruption.
Just my .05

Brown is very wealthy, the old pickup truck is an affectation.
ReplyDeleteI keep hearing that Brown is pro-choice.
ReplyDeleteIf so, do her bots know this?
Check this out;
ReplyDeletehttp://sn123w.snt123.mail.live.com/mail/InboxLight.aspx?n=524217425
Because we all know how reliable the Diebold voting machines are (snark).
I'd bet money (if I had any) that they DID mess up the count. Just read the link. It concerns everybody, all over the nation. It should not be ignored.
Wondering about the audience in the clips from Brown's acceptance gathering. It seemed as if they were all white males. Is this the new electorate?
ReplyDeleteWhat gets me is that Coakley had raised almost 5x what Brown had as of 12/31/09 (opensecrets.org).
ReplyDeleteCoakley was a lazy campaigner and took the Kennedy seat for granted.
If Dems want to prevail this fall, they need to work harder for the people, get their message straight, and first and foremost, be progressive!
Otherwise, the empty suits driving a pickup truck will prevail (that wasn't new, BTW, Fred Thompson did the same thing in TN). They have no new ideas, just recycling the same old shit.
Grandma68
Couple of thoughts on the Brown win:
ReplyDeletePerhaps the loss by Coakley might have been a blacklash toward women politicians as a result of Palin's high disapproval ratings. Palin has set back women in politics because of her polarization and her stupidity.
Brown and Cantor may be the fresh new faces of the Republican Party. I am happy for the win because it may well take SP off the front pages and relegate her name to the entertainment section. If the media makes Brown the darling of the Republican Party, it may mean Granny's 15 minutes of fame are ticking away.
My only comfort is that perhaps the Dems will now give up trying to appease the Repubs - maybe the 60 votes did more harm than good when it makes you kowtow to scum like Leibermen...
ReplyDeleteBrown's victory speech - first signs of bad judgement?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eBWfUTgEsM&feature=channel
LoveandKnishesfrom Brooklyn : and btw, I love your handle (cause I am a NewYorker wannabe) - I didn't sleep last night either. Not only is what's happening in our country re health care and other social issues so important to me, but I really thought and hoped for a cultural, political, social renaissance (and maybe it will still happen). Also, the Kennedy legacy is important to me. Go read Shannyn Moore this morning. I really like her take on this. You too Gryphen. P.S. Gryphen, take "you know who" out, please.
ReplyDeleteI know it's too early to speculate, but I think the republican's are going to be looking at a couple of newcomers for the 2012 presidential election. One MAY be Brown. He looks good, and really what else matters to Republican's? Another is Gary Johnson. Just starting to hear about him on a national level. He also looks good. Palin is getting old and will soon be too old to be the sexy little darling. How many 50 year olds are someones wet dream?
ReplyDeleteanon at 7:53:
ReplyDeleteI think what everyone is trying to say is -
"...you (Sarah Palin) who is having fits about Levi Johnston posing for Playgirl and how "classless" that was, do not consider it classless when Scott Brown did it. Why the double standard?"
Did Greta ask how does it feel to lose of $P? I think Greta has had it with $P. Girl crush is over.
ReplyDeleteGeta really should stop calling $P Governor Palin.
Glenn Beck thinks an intern will turn up dead when Brown goes to Washington?
Male or female intern?
Jeez, these people are stranger than fiction
