I'm posting this because of a loved ones response to me telling her that Coakley went on vacation. The response was, "yeah, she was seldom seen"...I then replied, "no she went on vacation, stopped campaigning and didn't keep any daily tracking numbers". After helping her pick up her jaw I decided I'd post this with a link because some people might be thinking that her going on vacation is figurative.

Where the hell was the DNC?!?!!

TIA

1. Maybe DU was running the campaign...

You know, all the people on here who said Mass is such a Democratic seat that it would be impossible for Brown to win?

2. We heard you the first few times you posted this.

Her vacation helped doom her, along with the inaction of the Dem party. We 'get' it. So how about solutions for fixing what's ailing us?

4. I added the link to be more clear and the onus does NOT belong on the DNC or Obama but on Coakley wh

....who went on vacation during a special election with no daily tracking.

That fact is missing from a LOT of final analysis

5. Its The Party Who Holds The Blame...

.....Did no one hold her accountable????....I guess unaccountability is a house specialty under the Obama administration...

13. Coakley would've put up a restraining order against the president

if she's the type of candidate who took vacations to get people off her back. :rofl:

10. Hate facts much?

12. Facts - VA, NJ, now MA, but through no fault of national Dems

All, I'm sure in your opinion, lost due to the idiosynchratic faults of unworthy candidates, including my state, NJ, where Corzine, who campaigned like hell and spend millions of his own money, who had gotten elected to the Senate on multiple occasions by sweeping majorities, got his ass kicked by someone who never held political office before.
