I have lost count the number of times "crow" has been served up to the media
and others.. who have predicted the demise of the Democratic party, the demise of Obama, just lost count.

Wright, School essays, Birth certificates, school grades, beer summits, gifts given to heads of state.. Michelle wearing shorts, HCR, pirates, on TV too much, on TV too little..3 AM calls, yadda yadda yadda.. so many I cannot keep up, He's black, God he's not black enough.. children in private schools..He is not traveling the United States enough.. He is on that plane too much..(sometimes we get these in the same day)



And every time, they are proven wrong, and off to the races to find the next thing to go bellicose on.

Well I may be counting my chickens before they hatch as we say in Iowa.. But seeing all the hard work Ma. Democrats are doing.

I think we will be serving up that sad little over baked crow once again

1. I am reminded of the 2008 New Hampshire Primary
Obama was up by 15. The media was all but certain the Democratic nominee was about to be chosen because nobody would be able to come back after that.

Yeah, they eat crow a lot.

Remember, too, in 2008, most of the pundits had it pegged as Guiliani v. Clinton and that Guiliani would win.

2. I remember that
and despite what the DU Ron Paulers say the media did not get the race that they wanted. They long had to pre-approved candidates and both of them messed up their opportunity. The Ghouli man in spectacular style.

3. Pretty much all I thought of
at work today was the election in Mass tomorrow and talked to a couple of friends about it too.

No one knows for sure but I do know this..it's going to be a very Joyous occasion in Mass and across the country(in certain households) if Martha Coakley wins the Senatorial Seat!
