She comes on local Boston radio every Monday and this past Monday was no exception....here in MA we had a “special” senatorial race on Tuesday to fill john effin kerry heinz’ seat - a whacked out lib (congresscrook ed markey) vs gabe gomez - (he’s left of scott brown). Gabe did a lot of his speeches in english/spanish and swore up and down he’d get the spanish vote, no really, they were going to come out in force to vote for him because he’s one of them (and he supports rubio’s immigration reform)....26% of the total populace of MA turned out to vote and guess what, the hispanics did NOT come out in force to vote for gabe, but, I digress, anyway, local guy Howie Carr told Annie about gomez/markey and asked her to ask the people of MA to vote for the lib lite because “he isn’t markey” and lo and behold there was Annie telling the people of MA to vote for gabe lib lite because “he isn’t markey” - he did the concession speech in english/spanish.

re: the Markey win. I think a real constitutional conservatve could've won. Scott Brown wasn't re-elected because all he did was compromise; he didn't represent anything.

MA is an odd state. It's liberal in a lot of ways....the unions, liberal "enlightened" university settings, and government programs. But MA people like their freedom from being spied on, having local government diminished, to run small businesses. War is not real popular here. A smarter Republican campaign would've tapped into this independent streak, particulary outside Boston-Cambridge.

After Ayotte in NH traitored constitutional conservatives, voters have become very skeptical. Gomez cane across like another Romney/McCain/Rubio/Ayotte wannabee who couldn't be trusted to bring the nation back. JMHO.
