BOSTON -- The seeds of the drama that could see the Senate seat held by the late Edward M. Kennedy slip to Republican control began to sprout during what is traditionally the quietest week on the political calendar.
"Things began to change the week between Christmas and New Year's," said Eric Fehrnstrom, a strategist for insurgent Republican Scott Brown. "That's the week we put our JFK ad up."
The commercial, which aired for only five days, depicted John F. Kennedy, the Democratic congressman who 58 years ago ran an insurgent campaign to capture the Republican-held "Cabot seat," morphing into Brown, the obscure state senator who surveys suggest might do the same with what's become known as the "Kennedy seat" when grumpy Massachusetts voters go to the polls on Tuesday.
But although the audacious spot was ripe for challenge -- the tax breaks JFK trumpeted were the calibrated adjustments of a committed Keynesian, hardly a philosophy embraced by Brown -- not a peep was heard from the campaign of Martha Coakley. Having won the Democratic primary by remaining the aloof front-runner, the state attorney general was not about to engage with a Republican whom the latest poll showed trailing her by 30 points.

“insurgent”?....not so subtle “republicans are terrorists” poke?...
Does read a bit like an Obit??
Pray for America and Scott Brown
Don’t get deceived! All MA supporters of Brown must vote in order to counter the fraud and “lost ballots” that are being planned as we type.
(”the tax breaks JFK trumpeted were the calibrated adjustments of a committed Keynesian, hardly a philosophy embraced by Brown.”)
Can anyone explain this to me?
Can anyone show me how JFK was a committed Keynsian?

Boston Herald is a lot more ‘supportive’...... :)
JFK was a SUPPLY SIDER even before the term was coined.
“It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today, and tax revenues are too low, and the best way to balance the budget is to cut taxes now. Only full employment can balance the budget, and tax cuts will pave the way to full employment!”
I enjoyed Croakley in "Poltergeist."
He’s playing to the Tea Party crowd AND WINNING IN BLUE MA.
REPUBLICAN PARTY TAKE NOTE.
OMG!!! It’s spot on! She scared the sh*t outta me back in the day!
Martha My Dear’s problem is that she doesn’t have lips. I’ve been trying to figure out what the hell’s off about her - it’s the lack of lips.
My father thought it would be cute to take me to that movie not long after it was released. I was about 7 or 8. First horror movie I ever saw in the theater. I think it scarred me for life. =8-0
Now the Obumbler cover-up starts: It’s all Coakley’s fault for running a lousy campaign and failing to see when the tide turned in favor of Brown, and nothing to do with the BIG FAIL Obumbler, the fact all dems are crooks and cheats, or the dirty backroom deals the dems are cutting on the most unpopular legislation ever, the healthcare mess.
No. Typical WAcomPost lie.
Yep! I remember screaming towards the end when the corpses were coming out of the swimming pool. 1982 - I was either 9 or 10.
That’s the scene. Seeing that swimming pool full of loyal Democrat voters is something that ain’t likely to leave one’s memory as a young ‘un.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So true, FM!
It does. Is WaPo conceding early? The urge to be right overcoming the progressive
imperative?
Reads like an obituary.
Don’t count out the rats.
LOL Very good
