A Weekly Standard reporter says he was roughed up last night outside a Washington, D.C. fundraiser for Attorney General Martha Coakley by someone he believes is associated with her U.S. Senate campaign.
John McCormack, the magazine’s deputy online editor, writes about the incident outside the Sonoma restaurant in an online dispatch entitled: “We Report, We Get Pushed.”

Coakley staffer knocks Weekly Standard reporter to ground

Assailant Was a Coakley Staffer on Loan from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee?
Weekly Standard ^ | January 13, 2010 | John McCormack
And Ms. Coakley is the leading law enforcement officer in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts?
She is a joke, and so is her campaign.
Tempers are growing short within the Coakley campign staff!
“And Ms. Coakley is the leading law enforcement officer in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts?”
She witnesses an assault by one of her staffers and does NOTHING!!!
“She witnesses an assault by one of her staffers and does NOTHING!!!”
Brown should be using that issue... and the PIC ... in a campaign ad. “Thug politics... that’s Martha Coakley!”
Ping.............
Democrat thuggery in action.
Check this out!
Meehan previously served as chief of staff to Senator Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.) and communications adviser to Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.). [2] In April 2004, then-Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry hired Meehan. He had “worked for Kerry almost two decades ago and is one of a handful of longtime Kerry associates on the campaign staff. He also was Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle’s (D-S.D.) political director.” [3] Typical Democrat thug.
I would like to see him try that with a CCW holder.
That photo may very well be Martha's Kim Phúc moment, the famous photo of the naked napalmed girl running down the road.
There Martha is, naked for all the world to see that she's devoid of any compassion and fairness for the average Joe as she continues down the road.

Just called Coakley’s Boston campaign office as a consituent to ask if she was exercising her executive judgement as AG to report assaults.
They told me Martha wasn’t present at last night’s altercation...

I seem to remember another recent politician who used thugs and bullies to help out with the cause.
As posted on the other thread: her Boston campaign office just told me she wasn’t there.
First assuming she had inherited the Senate seat from the Kennedy’s, then spelling her state’s name, then an out of control supporter. Ordinarily stuff like this would cause a politician to lose an election.
But this is MA. The land where minor foils like negligent homicide are overlooked for the Democrat.
