Dem press release: Scott Brown made a “deal with the devil” with “radical tea party groups”

posted at 9:31 pm on January 12, 2010 by Allahpundit

Via Weasel Zippers. Demagoging townhall protesters as “angry mobs” back in August did nothing for the DNC nationwide, but hope springs eternal for New England:

SCOTT BROWN’S DEAL WITH THE DEVIL
Will Republicans Sell Out To National Tea Party Movement Backfire At Home?
And If He’s Elected, Who Will He Owe?

“Scott Brown made a deal with the devil – and he should have held out for a better one…Brown’s embrace of radical tea party groups for funding coincides nicely with his willingness to accept the millions in television ads from shadowy out-of-state organizations with links to Karl Rove…”

Consider this and their Palin-baiting to be an official admission that they no longer believe that running on a standard liberal policy agenda can carry them over the finish line even in Massachusetts.

Meanwhile, here was the scene after a Coakley fundraiser on Capitol Hill tonight, which makes twice in less than three months that Weekly Standard reporter John McCormack has had a bizarre encounter with a candidate opposed by the conservative base. Coakley staffers said afterwards that they didn’t know who the guy was who was hassling McCormack in the video. Really? He was just a passerby who decided to push him into a sidewalk railing and demand his credentials?

McCormack has some kind of magnetism for liberal outrage. LOL.

Coakley is in meltdown mode. Here comes the Scott Brown express.

Scott Brown already made a deal with Obama?

I don’t know if Brown will win, but Coakley DESERVES to lose. What a despicable human being.

They really don’t have a clue…

kringeesmom on January 12, 2010 at 9:58 PM

That Leftwing Scum who pushed and shoved McCormack should be arrested and charged with assault.

“Touching” is grounds enough for an assault charge (or, rather, unwanted touching, as recorded in that video).

The Left isn’t going to stop this crud, and they’re getting more and more militant with this crud with every passing week.

Punditpawn on January 12, 2010 at 9:58 PM

“Shadowy links to Karl Rove’s multimillion dollar campaign donor club?” Seriously, NOBODY is stupid enough to buy this.

Sure a handful of moonbats will squint through the crack smoke and say, “Yeah, dude, like, totally.” But then they’ll forget all about it two seconds later.

Pretty much the only good thing I can say about the RNC these days is that the DNC sometimes acts even crazier than they do.

logis on January 12, 2010 at 9:59 PM

So Tea Party people are akin to the devil?

Who knew that the “right to disagree with any administration” would become so evil just a few years later.

I hope Scott Brown fires back with an add that stating that Coakley got money from pharma and other big business lobbies in Washington this week.

Brown’s embrace of radical tea party groups for funding…

I’m sorry but just what is radical about Tea Partiers? Demands for lower taxes? Demands for smaller government? Demanding that government get out of our lives? Isn’t that what Massachusetts’ forefathers were demanding? The radicals!!

DerKrieger on January 12, 2010 at 10:11 PM

And I agree, Karl Rove? Give me a break, they are really getting desperate now.

Basically, anybody but Scott Brown.

In her world, she doesn’t have to debate him on the issues; just keep saying ‘bushcheneyhaliburtonroverushhitler’ like it’s a conjuring spell that will imbue her with the Camelot magic.

massrighty on January 12, 2010 at 10:12 PM

A major national union supporting Democrat Martha Coakley is taking out a massive TV ad buy that slams her Republican rival, Scott Brown, for his positions on abortion and climate change

That’s per your link, BigDog. Cause we all know how great cap and trade legislation is going to be for the “working men and women” of SEIU. Oh, that’s right, I forgot. They’re going to get all those green jobs.

1) Not really into voting for people who call me the devil. Not really their intent, but, you know, hearts and minds.

A “deal with the devil” ??? Prove it. Teddy K. killed a girl, that we know. But for some reason this alleged deal with someone the dems don’t believe in is supposed to make everyone not vote for Brown?? The left never dissapoints in their idiocy.

Don’t you know? When you ask a lib a tough question, or throw up a quote of theirs, or do something really outlandish like demanding that they actually “represent” you. That is considered assault, and makes you Hitler.

Refusing to submit is radical.
Wanting to preserve (dare I say ‘conserve’) what’s best about America is radical.
Meeting in large groups to protest (which used to be called the right to peacefully assemble) is radical.

Video: Someone With the Coakley Campaign Pushes Me into a Metal Railing
=============
Massachusetts Democratic Senate candidate Martha Coakley attended a fundraiser at the Capitol Hill restaurant Sonoma tonight. After the event concluded, Coakley took two questions from the media but declined to say whether or not she stands by her statement at last night’s debate that there aren’t any terrorists in Afghanistan (and that they’ve all gone to Pakistan or Yemen).

After taking a question from a CNN reporter on the street outside the restaurant, I asked her:

TWS: Attorney General Coakley, you said last night that there are no terrorists in Afghanistan–that they’re all in Yemen and Pakistan. Do you stand by that remark?

COAKLEY: I’m sorry, did someone else have a question?

GRIFF JENKINS, Fox News: I did. Why are you in Washington tonight?

COAKLEY: We planned an event after the primary that would be a unity event in Washington. We’re also in the middle of a very intense campaign [...]

After Coakley finished her answer, she began walking away from the restaurant, and I walked behind her asking why health care industry lobbyists were supporting her at the fundraiser. She didn’t reply.

As I walked down the street, a man who appeared to be associated with the Coakley campaign pushed me into a freestanding metal railing. I ended up on the sidewalk. I was fine. He helped me up from the ground, but kept pushing up against me, blocking my path toward Coakley down the street.
===========================================================
Militant Liberal Political Insurgency Tactics!!

I’m wondering,since Team Hopey has been in power for almost
a year,minus 8 days,and they have accomplished zero,

are the Liberals who have an axe to grind,are they now start

I hope Scott Brown fires back with an add that stating that Coakley got money from pharma and other big business lobbies in Washington this week.

chris999 on January 12, 2010 at 10:00 PM

It’s not even “firing back.” This is the strongest ad Scott Brown could run:

Of the 22 names on the host committee–meaning they raised $10,000 or more for Coakley–17 are federally registered lobbyists, 15 of whom have health-care clients. Of the other five hosts, one is married to a lobbyist, one was a lobbyist in Pennsylvania, another is a lawyer at a lobbying firm, and another is a corporate CEO. Oh, and of course, there’s also the political action commitee for Boston Scientific Corporation.

All the leading drug companies have lobbyists on Coakley’s host committee: Pfizer, Merck, Amgen, Sanofi-Aventis, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Astra-Zeneca, and more. On the insurance side of things, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, HealthSouth, and United Health all are represented on the host committee.

chris999 on January 12, 2010 at 10:19 PM

Not only are they trying to bait Palin into talking about the race and endorsing Brown… they’re using her name as a scare tactic already in ads:

Union plans major ad buy for Coakley

The ad taken out by the Service Employees International Union, will begin airing statewide tomorrow. The buy size is $685,000, one of the largest of the election.

“Before you vote for Senate, here’s a few things you should know about Scott Brown,” says a narrator in the 30-second spot. The narrator then says he “has repeatedly opposed a woman’s right to choose” and he “expresses skepticism that climate change is being caused by humans.”

No wonder Brown’s campaign is being supported by the same extremist group that backs Sarah Palin,” the narrator says. “Martha Coakley for Senate. Massachusetts values.”

Or the kind that makes you smell like you are a sweating donkey standing in a field of sh*t after you rolled down a hill full of funkified ‘transparency’ sh*t?

Hmmmm?

Key West Reader on January 12, 2010 at 10:21 PM

From the Weekly Standard:

TWS: Attorney General Coakley, you said last night that there are no terrorists in Afghanistan–that they’re all in Yemen and Pakistan. Do you stand by that remark?

COAKLEY: I’m sorry, did someone else have a question?

Ha! The most transparent Democrats evah! It’s even more amusing when one remembers that she is an Attorney General. Clearly she is used to asking probing questions, but answering them? Not so much.

FAIL.

And as for their new improved plan to attack Brown on “climate change” they better be promising some Global Warming if they want Coakley to win since Bostonians are freezing their arses off.

Have been hearing all over Boston talk radio tonight that Coakley is saying pleading at fundraisers that if she doesn’t win, then 2010 is going to be hell on Democrats.

Probably the truest words she’s spoken in this campaign.

She is reported to have told the people at the fundraiser, “If I don’t win, 2010 is going to be Hell for the Democrats.”

Maybe she means she is going to actually start prosecuting all the political corruption in MassachusettEs rather than letting the Feds do what little they can.

Have been hearing all over Boston talk radio tonight that Coakley is saying pleading at fundraisers that if she doesn’t win, then 2010 is going to be hell on Democrats.

Probably the truest words only true words she’s spoken in this campaign.

Slight refinement of your excellent point!

She’s running against Palin,too. Shouldn’t they throw in Tom Delay, and Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, and Nixon/Agnew for good measure. Oh, and Joe McCarthy. Newt Gingrich, the neocons.

Don’t forget Strom Thurmond and Trent Lott.

The elections are going to get ugly, not just between the candidates either. I believe there will be violence in Massachusetts.

I’m not doubting you, I’m just saying we haven’t really had any violence to speak of in American elections since 1968. But I don’t know Mass politics. Why do you say there’ll be violence?
