Groundswell?
Looking around the blogosphere I am finding some interesting information on the Brown victory in Massachusetts. In case you are in liberal denial and feel this was a fluke with little meaning for the 2010 elections look at some facts I found from Ann Coulter:
“Coakley had already won two statewide elections, while her Republican opponent, Scott Brown, had only won elections in his district. She had endorsements from the Kennedy family and the current appointed Democratic senator, Paul Kirk — as well as endless glowing profiles in The Boston Globe.
“And by the way, as of Jan. 1, Brown had spent $642,000 on the race, while Coakley had spent $2 million.
“On Jan. 8, just 11 days before the election, The New York Times reported: ‘A Brown win remains improbable, given that Democrats outnumber Republicans by 3 to 1 in the state and that Ms. Coakley, the state’s attorney general, has far more name recognition, money and organizational support.’”
It appears that the best cure for what ails us was a strong shot of the Obama/Reid/Pelosi virus. I refuse to celebrate though. I am ever fearful that the GOP leadership will manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by fielding and supporting candidates that fit the mold of the kinder, gentler party. The GOP was never meant to be the kinder gentler party we are patriots who believe in freedom and refuse to give an inch on our principles. Only time will tell, because nothing can deflate a Republican groundswell like the beltway Bozos believing their own press.
