The Quality of Our Political Leaders (and those who want to be)


The Massachusetts senate race to succeed Kennedy has heated up in its last week. The polls seem to say that Marthy Coakley, who has served as the AG in Massachusetts is in a close race. She and Scott Brown had what the Boston papers called a heated debate last night. The Boston papers are all commenting on her enforcement efforts against local garden clubs. But then comes her latest ad. Coakley, or her supporters, can't even seem to spell the name of the state she seeks to represent correctly. Her ad says "Paid for by the Massachusettes Democratic Party." Gee I wonder if she wins, if she will become the educashun senator.
