Martha Coakley reminds me of Kathleen Brown (CA)
I'm a California native. In 1994 Gov. Pete Wilson was vulnerable, but the Democrat Party (that's what I call the party when they become incompetent) nominated Kathleen Brown to oppose him: a simpering, feckless, babbling, incompetent nincompoop. Wilson went for the jugular, bashing illegal immigrants and exploiting other hot-button issues. Kathleen Brown just sort of dithered around and did nothing. She lost by double digits. Martha Coakley reminds me of her.

I don't want to ever see either one of their names on a ballot again.

3. Go ahead. Being a weak woman is a very, very bad candidate. nt

5. It was a horrible mistake. It became a beauty contest since there was
no substance.
