Democrats are already throwing Martha Coakley under the bus calling her campaign political malpractice as they look to shift blame away from Barack Obama and their liberal agenda.
What Democrats fail to realize is that voters in Massachusetts understand that the Obama administration and the Democrats have invested more time in passing a health-care program that a majority don’t want and virtually no time getting the economy going. Republicans, like myself, know that this was no accident. Democrats were counting on people losing their jobs and thus their health-care coverage to bolster support for government health-care. That didn’t happen and now they are suffering the consequences of that gamble. Should Republican Scott Brown win, you can expect moderate and conservative Democrats to run for cover and abandon health-care. I would also expect Obama to move to the center and to focus on the economy. If Obama moves to the center, he will enrage his liberal base and we could see a depressed and deflated Democrat party. In 30 minutes we should be getting the results.
