This is what's wrong with Massachusetts
“There is no way in hell we’re going to elect a Republican to Ted Kennedy’s seat,’’ US Representative Michael E. Capuano, Coakley’s chief primary rival, said at the unity event in the Kennedy Room of the Omni Parker House. “Period.’’
I thought the seat "belonged" to the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It's not Tedy's seat, it's certainly not the Democrats' seat, even though they act as if it is theirs. There is such a sense of entitlement that keeps the Democrats from fully respecting what a privilege it has been for them to occupy that seat for so long.
On the one hand they evoke the name Ted Kennedy at every chance and on the other they swarm over his empty senate seat like a bunch of vultures.
Vote Brown.
