Seriously.

What if Coakley fails to prevail? What does that say?

After Virginia and New Jersey, what does it say?

1. It says you are listening to Republican bullshit.
Coakley isn't going to lose, so quit panicking.

2. what it says to me is that the Dems put up another "New Dem" corporate
apologist (did you see her health insurance and Pharma contributor list?!) and the people decided she wasn't good enough to have the job.

4. It says some here will have a wakeup call about the direction of our party
For others it will be we told you so.

I cant think of a more solidly Democratic Senate seat in the country, and even the fact its close should tell our party the people are getting tired of seeing them giving so much away to the corporations while the average person is getting screwed.

Its a bad sign for the midterms.

5. A wake up call that will drive the Senate
further to the right. It will be portrayed as a GOP resurgence.

6. It sure will
Coupled with a HCR bill that can be painted in an extremely negative light by the GOP and the Democratic party might as well come out and admit they want the GOP to take over.

13. The news media would present it
as a rejection of "Government takeover of health", it will then be another 16 years before this issue is looked at again.

14. Agreed
The rush to sign off on anything that might remotely be described as "healthcare reform" which is not either single-payer or contains a meaningful public option is a cliff that Democratic legislators are willingly jumping off.

15. An interview with Harold Ford is coming out this weekend in the NYT
this weekend. It will pretty much end his candidacy. Knows nothing about NY.

10. It says the "we must break the Democratic party to fix it" faction on DU
...may have a chance to watch their theory in action. From under Republican government. Hope that works out.

11. That would be awful
A left-wing nude male model however, would be fine. Maybe. Depends on the model.

16. That our illustrious "centrist candidates" = business supporting first and always = are not reaching
the democratic and independent voters.

These big business, new democrats are NOT going to win any elections - especially in the North Eastern and Atlantic States.

17. It says to me bank bonuses are not big enough and more of our treasury needs to go to them.
:shrug: I remember well how Obama coined the phrase "Main Street not Wall Street"

18. It would say that in the next presidential election, we'll be seeing a Nader centerfold.
And that man, let me tell you, is unsafe in any Speedo.
