You Do the Math
Remember that $1.3 million Scott Brown raised in a single day?
Martha Coakley's claims of big money special interest groups feeding Brown's campaign coffers notwithstanding, the Daily Caller is reporting today that the average individual donation was hardly "big money".
And, of course, Coakley made these claims about Brown's supposed dependence on well-heeled special interest groups while standing outside the building where she was attending a fundraiser in Washington DC to rake in tens of thousands from HMO, pharmaceutical, and insurance company lobbyists.
This woman has no shame.
And, how does the DNC (note: not exactly a Massachusetts-based opersation) respond to Scott Brown's success in getting ordinary American's to support his campaign?
Yes, you read that right. The Democrats are still running against Karl Rove.
Taste the change.
Seriously, if this smear campaign isn't ample proof that Coakley and the Democrats are out of ideological gas, and have all but given up on debating the issues in an open and honest manner, what would be?

Most of the 16,000 contributors who are responsible for Republican Scott Brown banking $1.3 million in campaign bucks on Monday for his Massachusetts Senate campaign came from grass roots donors averaging $77.89 a donation, his campaign said.
“It went viral,” Felix Browne, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Republican told The Daily Caller. Help from former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, both Republicans who sent emails to their supporters encouraging them to donate, helped bring in dollars from across the country.
Rob Eno, a Brown supporter and one of the operators of blog RedMassGroup.com, said he helped raise over $12,000 for the money bomb off his Web site with an application for visitors to donate to Brown’s campaign. The Brown enthusiast donated $50 to the campaign minutes after the money bomb began early Monday morning.
“I’ve been involved in Massachusetts politics for 10 years, and I’ve never seen anything like it,” Eno said of the grassroots involvement for Brown.

Yes, you read that right. The Democrats are still running against Karl Rove.
Taste the change.
