Because every word in it about Martha Coakley’s “we need to get taxes up” policies are true. As the brilliant H. L. Mencken observed, “any man can bear injustice. What stings is justice.”
Sorry Martha: The truth, she hurts.
UPDATE! While Scott Brown is riding around Massachusetts in his pick-up truck on Tuesday, Martha will be off to DC, raising money from insiders and Washington lobbyists. Why not? She’s already in the bag. Now it’s time to collect.
UPDATE UPDATE! The Cook Political Report has re-classified the Brown v. Coakley race from “Solidly Democrat” to “Leans Democrat.” Martha, you better run along to your lobbyist pals. You need the money!
"The truth is something [Warren] probably prefers not to confront. Harvard doesn’t come calling just because you’re a smart lawyer and a terrific teacher — not with Warren’s modest, Oklahoma upbringing and non-Ivy League education. She is not your typical Harvard professor. At a certain point, when the law school was under pressure to promote diversity, she represented a three-fer: a great lawyer with a national profile, a woman, and a minority, at least by virtue of family lore.
