Politico notices a buried lede in the Boston Globe’s morning report on the Massachusetts special election to replace Ted Kennedy in the Senate. With Haiti crumbling, a war to fight, and ObamaCare negotiations hitting a high-pressure point, Barack Obama could only offer a two-minute snoozefest of a web ad in support of Martha Coakley. Now it looks as though Rahm Emanuel may be sounding the red alert at the White House and get Obama on the ground in Massachusetts (emphases mine, h/t Geoff A):

Oh, Zero, please go to Massachusetts. Please go. Show your true colors. Politics is soooo much more important than anything the USA or the World is facing.
haha...

Let the socialist muslim from Kenya go to Massachussetts and finish off the democrat once and for all.
This is great news. Ask Governors-elect McDonnnell and Christie.
Well, if he does go, I hope the Tea Party members show up in greater numbers than the SEIU paid crowd. He needs some serious protesting. Maybe he could hear it? Nahhhh
PLEASE PLEASE pretty please go zero!
ROFL
The taint of failure is getting so strong around the zero he will soon be a pariah, and he just keeps coming back for more heaping helpings of fail! ROFL

Failure to go makes Obama a pussy.
If he goes, the MSM will be forced (at last)

Didn’t he go to Virginia, and New Jersey, Rraaaarrgggghhh!
While the crisis in Haiti is happening? snicker

Right now, Mr. Obama is radioactive.
The thrill is gone, Mr.. President. You blew it.
