Massachusetts Left engages in Bullying and Threats

Blue Mass. Group:: Labor to challenge Lynch if he votes no on HCR

These are the tactics of the far-left Democratic Party in MA. If you dare to disagree with the Left, then evidently you are not a Real Democrat.

Message to the Left: Put me down as an Independent. I, along with most of America, reject your Socialist agenda.


Congressman, we will not be able to explain to the working women and men of our
union why you voted against their interests. We have stood together time and
time again and you have made an enormous difference in the lives of our members.
It takes courage to make history. We know that you have always had the
courage to do the right thing - national health reform is the right thing for
Massachusetts families.
Please stand with us once again and do the right
thing.
Whole letter reprinted below the fold.
It comes down to this: If
you vote against health care reform, there is simply no reason for you to be a
Democrat. And there is no reason a Democrat should vote for you. It's a litmus
test issue if ever there was one. And Lynch's test is coming out more "red" than
"blue".

The Boston Globe is Angry with Tim Cahill

Cahill taps firms tied to state pension investor - The Boston Globe

The Boston Globe does not like it when Democrats, especially, chanllenge the Liberal Orthodoxy. The beginning of this story ADMITS that nothing illegal has happened. So why is this a story? Simple -- If you're a Democrat and you're not a left-winger, then the Globe.

Message for the Globe -- Go cry in your wine.

Nothing obvious connects Cahill to these donors, whose companies are based in
such states as Texas, Missouri, Florida, and Colorado. But an extensive Globe
review of Cahill’s aggressive fund-raising practices uncovered the common link:
Michael A. Ruane, a Boston investment manager who employs those firms to handle
the vast real estate holdings he has bought for his investors — and who counts
the Massachusetts pension board as one of his clients.
Since Cahill became
the board’s chairman in 2003, Ruane’s investment management firm has been
allocated $500 million in pension funds to invest — and has earned $34 million
in management fees.
In fact, the largest one-day infusion of Ruane-connected
campaign donations, $40,250 from business associates and their relatives in 12
states, was deposited on Aug. 13, 2003, a day before the Pension Reserves
Investment Management board voted unanimously to give Ruane’s company $100
million to invest.
Cahill and Michael Travaglini, the state pension board’s
executive director, insist that there was no connection between the fund-raising
and investment decisions and said that Ruane’s firm, TA Associates Realty, has
been one of the pension fund’s best managers, even before Cahill’s time. Ruane’s
company already handled $300 million from the state pension fund when Cahill
took office.

Liberals lose Sanchez, Nye, and Space -- Bill is going down!!!

It has been a roller coaster 24 hours for the President's health care
reform effort. The Democrats have convinced a number of former "no" votes
to commit to voting "yes." At the same time, a few former "yes" votes have
flipped over to "no." Whip counts vary, but the various counts have the
yeas and nays at around 208. 216 votes are needed for passage.
This is
complicated by the uncertainty surrounding the size of the so-called "Stupak
bloc," which is not included in this count. These are Democrats who
normally would vote for health care reform, but want stronger anti-abortion
language inserted into the bill. These Democrats are described as Costello
(IL-12), Donnelly (IN-02), Driehaus (OH-01), Lipinski (IL-03), Stupak (MI-01),
Berry (AR-01), Dahlkemper (PA-03), Mollohan (WV-01), Kaptur (OH-09) and Rahall
(WV-03). Reports have Stupak saying that his intial bloc of 12 had been sliced in half, but it is unclear whether he was referring to
his intial group (which lost members like Oberstar and Kildee), or to the group
that he had recently put together (which added members like Berry and
Donnelly).

Coakley Reveals her condescension towards Massachusetts' Middle Class....

Right, Martha, because anyone who is a Brown supporter must also be a Yankee supporter, right???


She is so incredibly out of touch...........


Coakley dismisses Schilling: 'Another Yankee fan' - Ben Smith - POLITICO.com

In the intensifying Democratic precriminations game over who to blame if
Coakley loses, here's one for the blame Coakley camp: On another talk radio
show, "Nightside With Dan Rea," Coakley jabs Rudy Giuliani as a Yankee fan, then
goes on to describe Brown supporter Curt Schilling, the great former Red Sox
pitcher, as a Yankee fan as well.
The host sounds incredulous -- "Curt
Schilling? The Red Sox great pitcher of the bloody sock?" -- and Coakley
initially sounds unfamiliar with him.

Yeah, I'd say that Coakley is completely unfamiliar with
Schilling............

Coakley's Gutter Campaign Continues....

Coakley: Scott Brown doesn't pay for health care for workers - Local News Updates - The Boston Globe

Coakley's last, sad attempt to wan an election that she should have won by 20 points...... Fortunately, her gutter campaign of slash, burn, and attack hasn't worked.....
Democratic US Senate candidate Martha Coakley today highlighted her
differences with her opponent, Republican Scott Brown, on health insurance
reform by saying that Brown does not pay for health insurance for his campaign
workers, while she does.
“We already knew that Scott Brown didn’t want to
make health insurance more affordable for Massachusetts families and
businesses. Now we learn that he won’t even make health insurance
available for his own staff. If he won’t stand up for the people he
employs, how could we ever trust him to stand up for us?" Coakley said in a
statement.

At his first campaign event today, in Quincy, Brown was greeted by an
excited crowd of about 500 people. Detail police officers clapped him on his
back, and the crowd included elderly women and people who described themselves
as Democrats.
Before he spoke, on a stage in front of the public library
decorated with a giant American flag and bunting, he was greeted by seven
seconds of applause, cheers, and chants of "Go, Scott, go!"

He was joined by former Republican governor William F. Weld and a former
Quincy mayor, Frank McCauley, who said, "I've never seen anything like this
before."
Brown told the crowd, "This race is about differences. It's always
been about differences, and it's not about personalities," citing the two
candidates' positions on taxes, spending, and terrorism.

He also criticized Coakley for running negative ads, saying, "It's funny
how quickly the politics of hope, the politics of hope, have turned into the
politics of destruction."
