A few years ago there was a shot fired near Boston that was heard a lot farther away than Cape Cod.

Moderated by the hyper partisan David Gergen, the inspiring Scott Brown mopped the floor with repugnant democrat hack, Martha Coakley, his opponent for the Massachusetts senate seat once owned by Ted Kennedy Kopechne.
Exposing the astounding arrogance of the democrats, Gergen asked Brown and Coakley if they would stop the health care bill so beloved by Kennedy. Brown delivered a response that inflicted incalcuable damage to the democrat party in its current constitution:
“With all due respect,’ said Brown, ‘it’s not the Kennedy’s seat, and it’s not the Democrats’ seat, it is the people’s seat.’ You could hear the roars from South Boston to Cape Cod. Coakley looked dumbfounded. Here’s why: Brown’s words hit at the heart of the question that’s driving this special-election campaign: Will Massachusetts’ vote be based on its past or on its future?”

Part of the reason he mopped the floor with her is that he knew just how to treat David Gergen, namely, as an opponent. The rest was rather simple. He made it look like Gergen and Coakely were co-conspirators in an elitist plot.
I wanted to hear the local roar, in the auditorium at least ;) Hearing none makes me think that Masschusettsians are all cold-blooded die-hard Democrat trouts.
(And I lived there 12 years.)
When I worked in the Senate and Gergen was in the Reagan WH, he used to instruct the communications staff there every day to check the NYTimes for “guidance.”
it was a home game for Coakley, it was sponsored by the Edward Kennedy Center
Gergen was gurglin’ after that smackdown. LOL. What happened to that guy anyway? Wasn’t he on Reagan’s team? Too many years on the Georgetown cocktail party circuit?
He’s not just want the country needs unless we need Rinos. He is what the Mass. GOP needs to win this election and that is about it.
Last line from Wiki entry on Gergen:
Gergen is active on many non-profit boards and is Chairman of the National Selection Committee for the Ford Foundation’s program on Innovations in American Government. He is a past member of the Bohemian Club[8], Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission.[9]
If he could add the Freemasons and David Rockefeller he would part of ALL the conspiracy theories!
The shill was clearly a stand-in for Croakley's brain. Somehow, he forgot his back at DNC headquarters.
Scott Brown's return-of-serve on Gergen's 'Kennedy Seat' question looked like a Roger Federer reponse to a rank amateur ... effortless, precise and devastating. A perfect match for the Senate stooges.
Cool. And just for the record, he’s “Not Guilty!!” Not by a loooong shot! lol
Definitely the high point. I hope Brown can do it.
If it's a fair election, I think the force is with him. Almost every patriotic citizen in the country is providing moral and/or monetary support. Prayers can't hurt either.
No matter the results, it's a game-changer.
My dear,dear off the deep end Dem relatives in Newburyport
said they`re voting for Scott.
Anecdotal evidence I know but praying for a miracle in Ma.
He probably gets big bucks on those boards and fringe benefits too.
Brown sounds like a RINO. I wouldn’t get too excited.
I just went on his site and throw a few green bucks, and I did it form Mary Joe, NOT for “Teddy” as some have suggested us to do!!!
Our country is beset by previously unheard of deficits that threaten the soundness of the currency and the ability of our children to afford to pay for anything other than the carrying cost on the debt, government created boom and bust cycles that devastate private balance sheets, inherently corrupt earmark appropriations, massive fraud, waste and abuse in federal and state programs, and signficant governmental constraints on private initiative. The ONLY answer to these problems is a systemic and rigorous reduction in the tasks government has assumed. The next Congress should not adopt a single new program. Its role should be to examine what the federal government does and eliminate those programs which are poorly run or are shown to have unacceptable unintended consequences, to reduce the deficit, and to eliminate or suspend federal regulatory requirements that inhibit private initiative and the creation of private sector jobs.
The "moderates" of the world do not acknowledge the truth of this or in fact even understand it.
Gergen went over to the dark side decades ago.
When I try and put a face to “US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT” I see nothing but a pasty old man looking to appease someone - anyone. That man is Gergen. The Eskimos would put their dotty elderly out on a ice berg for the polar bears - it is really too bad we do not have the intelligence of the Eskimos.
Coakley is not likeable; bringin’ in da union muscle only adds to her preception problem.
