Yes, Mother Teresa of Calcutta (spelling her name correctly here, I believe,) would have voted for Brown over Coakley. I would have too if I had been a voter in MA. That still does not vindicate Brown’s switching around his views/flip-flopping in Kerry and Romney style, to get elected.
I haven’t seen any actual flip-flops. He ran as pro-choice in 2004. He claimed to be pro-choice in the televised debate in January as well. Coakley tried to make abortion the issue in this campaign and it bit her hard.
We definitely need to be on the lookout for flip-flops though because he is going to be under intense pressure from Boston media and polling.
