Coakley campaign misspells 'Massachusetts' in ad
boston.com ^ | January 12, 2010 | Matt Viser

Somebody get Martha Coakley's campaign a dictionary. Or a map. Or anything that would correctly spell the very state she's running to represent in Washington.

The Democrat last night rolled out her second TV ad of the general election race for US Senate. It's a hard-hitting spot -- particularly for a front-runner -- that accuses her Republican opponent, state Senator Scott Brown of Wrentham, of being in "lock-step" with the national GOP, complete with photos of former president George W. Bush and former vice president Dick Cheney.

There's just one problem. That state she wants to serve? Massachusetts? It's spelled like this at the end of the 30-second spot: "Massachusettes." As in, "Paid for by the Massachusettes Democratic Party and authorized by Martha Coakley for Senate."

“I'm Martha Coakley, Attorney General and I can't even spell the name of the state that I work for and I approve of this message”

Can't check that fact Martha? No wonder you couldn't see the last 3 Speakers of the MA House steal the gold of the dome on Beacon Hill!

Attorney General, eh? Clerical errors like that on an indictment or bill of information can get a case dismissed or quashed.

Old school Bolsheviks - however evil - used to be smart and effective. Lenin, Trotsky, Mao come to mind. The American collectivists are the saddest pile of imitative, repetitive droppings in the whole drab, wretched and failed history of Marxist failure. Drugs and academia I guess.

And what exactly is the “Democratic” party?

This gal can’t spell and can’t read.

Can she disrespect her own state any more? This thing is approaching Mayor-Joe-Quimby-esque proportions in terms of contempt for the voting public.

OTOH, most voters can’t spell anyways.

I'm surprised that Brown didn't go over & spell it wrong also - just to be fair. Even more surprised because he's a RINO.

I doubt that her base can spell well, either, so she’ll still win.

When I was in the 2nd grade in New Orleans, Louisiana and Mississippi were mandatory spelling words.
