As a stereotypical progres...Massachusetts, please.<br /><br />As a stereotypical progressive liberal bottomfeeder who would make Ded Ted proud, Ms. Coakley distinguishes herself by having the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) use state computers and state e-mail addresses to direct state employees to volunteer for her campaign. She also found her way around the state’s campaign finance laws to get a head start on padding her coffers, as well as made a point to hand out community grants to the tune of some $1.5 million at the end of December. <br /><br />Senator Scott Brown is a fiscal conservative with many years of service in the Massachusetts National Guard, and he was awarded the Army Commendation Medal for meritorious service in homeland security following 9/11. Unlike Coakley, Brown feels that:<br /><br />Government is too big and that the federal stimulus bill made government bigger instead of creating jobs <br /><br />Taxes are too high and are going higher if Congress continues with its out-of-control spending <br /><br />The historic amount of debt we are passing on to our children and grandchildren is immoral <br /><br />Power concentrated in the hands of one political party, as it is here in Massachusetts, leads to bad government and poor decisions <br /><br />A strong military and vigorous homeland defense will protect our interests and security around the world and at home <br /><br />All Americans deserve health care, but we shouldn’t have to create a new government insurance program to provide it <br /><br />It would be interesting to see if the good people of Taxachusetts might finally be outgrowing Barney.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-45424744327760225712010-01-04T22:13:13.277-05:002010-01-04T22:13:13.277-05:00I'd say poll Connecticut or Alabama.

A republican has not won since 2002, and that was when he (Mitt Romney) ran as a pro-choice moderate and squeaked out a plurality win. The state is too overwhelmingly democratic for a republican to have a chance. If you don't believe me, just look at the turnout in the primary; over 4 times as many democrats voted as republicans. While if this were any other state, you would have a point, MA at least at the moment isn't the highest priority.Darrennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-85139141209891549802010-01-02T15:50:30.230-05:002010-01-02T15:50:30.230-05:00Please cover the Senate race in CT.

There are 3 big-name candidates that are vying for the Republican nomination this year:<br /><br />Rob Simmons - Former US Congressman with the most party insider support<br />Linda McMahon - WWE Wrestling CEO pleding to spend up to $50 million of her own money in the campaign<br />Peter Schiff - Economist and CEO of the brokerage Euro Pacific Capital who predicted the financial crisis and the government's response as early as 2005.<br /><br />Dodd's Senate seat is extremely important for Democrats to hold onto, as he has held the position for over 30 years and chairs the powerful Senate Banking Committee. However, he is seen as very vulnerable due to mortgage scandals, blocking caps on Wall Street bonuses in TARP legislation, and stating that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were not in financial trouble before and even during the initial phase of the credit crunch. Although passing Health Care reform will likely improve his polling numbers, Dodd's low approval rate has brought out an unusually qualified mix of challengers against such a powerful incumbent.<br /><br />Other good CT stories would be the home-state's view of "Independent" Joe Lieberman in light of his recent political maneuvers over Health Care Reform, and of course the CT Gubernatorial race which has put considerable pressure on Gov. Rell and Republicans wishing to keep their grip on the executive that they have held in Hartford since 1991.Chris Duganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05223961888901594760noreply@blogger.com
