"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Don't Blame Martha, She Voted for Hillary



Lynn Forester-de-Rothschild nails it with this piece, linked at The New Agenda. Anybody in their right mind knows that this is not about Martha being a "bad candidate." Or running a "bad campaign."

We now get a glimpse of *why* Martha stood for Hillary til the bloody end of the 2008 primaries. The genius of knowing her own constituants... and what they would back in the long run. Martha surely saw the huge losses coming for her party under Obama. Even in Bluest of Blue, Massachusetts.

But she tried anyway. For that I give her credit.

I hope she keeps trying, too. Just like Hillary.

Personally, I place this loss squarely on the shoulders of the man whose seat Brown will be taking. Ted Kennedy. And his buddy John Kerry. They knew who their constituants wanted at the top of the Dem ticket in 2008. But they backed the empty suit anyway. Eff you, Teddy and Johnny. Eff you both. And your little boiz club too.

"When in Doubt, Back the Woman!"



That is my motto.

And, I'll add.... there is plenty of doubt to go around where the Coakley/Brown contest is concerned.

Just sayin'.

Burn, Baby, Burn and Rise, Hillary, Rise (The Implosion of the Obamacrat Party and the Rise of the Phoenix.)

PUMA blogs this morning are picking up on a new hope! It's not the hopey-changey-kool-ade-bongy type of dope that the Obamacrat party shoved down our throats in 2008.

It has nothing to do with a hope based in empty rhetoric and back-sliding policies.

Because, just as Always For Hillary links to Heather Higgins:

"President Obama’s meetings at the Senate on Sunday, much like his visit to Copenhagen this week, are not indicators of inevitability; they are portents of panic. The reports coming out of the closed door, Democrats-only, meeting of internal divisions that are still irreconcilable, despite the high rhetoric of historic moment, only make the point more vividly: can you say 'desperation'?"

And Tennessee Guerilla Women bemoan the fact that it is our own Democratic party that has "Killed the Public Option."

The Confluence is on to the fact that the Clinton's have wrested a Massachusetts senatorship out of Kennedy-Obamacrat hands. Yes, Martha Coakley has triumphed over the preferred candidate of the Holy One and his minions.

Ms. Coakley took that special election by a bit of a landslide, according to The New Agenda which reported that as of 9:05 p.m., Coakley had 47% of the votes (Capuano 27%, Pugliuca 13%, Khazei 13%)

Why couldn't the Kennedy-Obamacrat party cram Capuana down the throats of the people of Massachusetts, you ask?

Well... there's this little matter of ongoing Race Baiting in the Obamacrat party. And the voter intimidation cover-up at the DOJ. Not to mention the the supreme distastefulness of Mr. Obama's minions in the press.

Somehow... the Obamacrat party has seriously misread the American people. Their little White House frat party is going up in flames.

My response?

"Burn, baby, burn. And Rise, Hillary, Rise."
