Remember Scott Brown? Dems had a candidate (Coakley) who was an entitled crappy campaigner who thought it was an automatic win (hey, it’s MA, DEMS always win...right?).


Coakley was the sacrificial lamb. Her loss meant that the House had to vote on Obamacare as-is, no amendments, as the Dims only had 59 votes after Brown won. Coakley also managed to lose the election for Governor of Massachusetts in 2014, to Republican Charles Baker. Note: Baker attended Harvard, but he didn’t like it.

“Sacrificial lamb” is cop out excuse. They expected a win but like Moore, she was a flawed/entitled candidate.

You don’t recruit, fund, then sacrifice a candidate leading to a loss of face.
