Moonbat leads with 2 left feet
Damn Yankee another feather in Martha Coakleys cap

Please, can somebody buy Martha Coakley a clue?
Everyone knows she is and always has been a blithering moonbat, obsessed with Political Correctness and not much else. But the rule is, you dont let the whole world - or at least the peasants - in on your little secret, at least until after youve been safely elected.
Apparently Martha didnt get the memo. This week shes had at least three Do you know who I am? moments, starting with her snide dismissal of Scott Brown for campaigning outside Fenway Park [map] before the recent Bruins [team stats] game.
Asked whether she should have deigned to campaign for the office she seems to believe she inherited, she snapped: As opposed to standing outside Fenway Park? In the cold? Shaking hands?
Hey Martha, even Ted Kennedy worked factory gates. It was a good place to meet broads.
Then on Thursday she went on a radio talk show in New Bedford and let slip exactly what she thinks of Catholics.
You can have religious freedom, but you probably shouldnt work in the emergency room.
Imagine a Republican saying members of some other religion - Muslims, for instance - should be excluded from, say, boarding a commercial airliner with a one-way ticket, no luggage, and no overcoat for a flight to Detroit.
Martha would be all over the Republican like white on rice. But its not hate speech if youre ripping Roman Catholics, at least not if youre a liberal Democrat. Quite an irony, a Democrat nominee in Massachusetts, with an Irish surname no less, suddenly coming on like a member of the old Catholic-hating Know-Nothing Party.
And now comes her appearance on another radio talk show Friday night. Maybe its unfair to call Martha a Know-Nothing, but after her appearance on WBZ you can say without fear of contradiction that she knows . . . nothing.
She mentioned Rudy Giulianis appearance earlier in the day for Scott Brown and then added that hes a Yankee fan.
Not Yankees but Yankee. She wanted to establish her everyman cred, like John Kerry blabbing on in 2004 about Manny Ortiz.
Yeah, says host Dan Rea, but now Scott Brown has Curt Schilling [stats], OK?
Another Yankee fan.
Schilling? Dan Rea cant believe even a Democrat could be this stupid.
Yes, she says.
Curt Schilling? Rea repeats incredulously. A Yankees fan?
No? she says. Someone who is privy to reality, as she might put it, must have been giving her the choke sign. All right, Im wrong.
Curt Schilling? Rea continues, still astonished. The great Red Sox [team stats] pitcher of the bloody sock?
Well, Martha sniffs, hes not there anymore.
With any luck, she wont be there anymore after Tuesday. She really is Mike Dukakis in a skirt. She won the Democratic primary and thought the race was over, just like Dukakis after he dispatched Al Gore in 1988. Why do you think she was in D.C. Tuesday night with her thug entourage, picking up cash from the lobbyists for her moonbat cheerleaders at MSNBC? She was taking a victory lap.
Her sycophants told her she had it in the bag. But nobody told Scott Brown. This is a guy who knows what its like to take on the machine. The first time he was elected to the state Senate, the hacks scheduled the special election on the same day as the 2004 presidential primary. Kerry was on the ballot and there was no Republican race - in other words the deck was totally stacked against Brown.
But he won.
Lets just hope on Tuesday he can give Martha a one-way ticket to Palookaville.

Howie Carr/MA US Senate election PING
She won the primary on name recognition and gender solidarity.
Prior to this race Scott Brown did not have that kind of name recognition, but the gender identity voters are only a small fraction of the total electorate and they wouldn't vote for a Republican woman, regardless.
Since there was no descent of the Holy Ted and Martha cannot speak in toungs, Schilling a Yankee fan, no one can speak that language, she is of the beast to be Cast out.
