Is Elizabeth Warren Tanking?


The architect of "You didn't build that" could be in for a major loss...to a Republican in a liberal state:
I joked the other day about Elizabeth Warren’s Mike Dukakis Tank moment.

Maybe tanking was the right word, because a PPP poll just released shows Warren 5 points behind and Warren’s negatives rising dramatically (emphasis mine):
PPP’s newest poll on the Massachusetts Senate race finds Scott Brown opening up a 5 point lead, 49-44. This is the first time Brown has led in one of our polls since June of 2011. Our last poll, in June of this year, found a tie and the two before that had modest leads for Elizabeth Warren.
Brown continues to do well because of his personal popularity and because voters see him as different from the Republican Party as a whole. 53% of voters approve of the job he’s doing to 36% who disapprove. Incumbents with those kinds of approval numbers generally don’t lose. Brown’s approval has improved a net 14 points from March when he was at +3 (45/42).
Warren’s numbers are headed in the other direction. On that poll her favorability was 46/33 and now it’s 46/43- her negatives have risen 10 points over the last five months while her positives have remained unchanged.
Got that?  Warren’s negatives have risen 10%.  I’m not about to take any credit for that.

Oh, hell, on an akin, breakin day like this, I need to cheer myself us, so I’ll take a small bit of the credit for helping to expose the truth, which necessarily would cause Warren’s negatives to rise.

I’ll leave it to others to see if there are any sampling differences which might explain the change from the prior poll by PPP.  I’m just going to take whatever good news I can get today without question.

And I’ll add this, from Cole DeLaune writing at Indian Country Today, accusing Warren of “spiritual genocide” and calling her a “pathological revisionist”:
In Warren’s model of ethnic distinction, neither practical experience nor community affiliation applies; one can simply appropriate the mantle of Cherokee lineage at personal discretion. Per this formulation, the disparities between discrete cultures are meaningless, and Professor Warren is effectively championing a subtle variety of spiritual genocide.
A November victory for this pathological revisionist will legitimize abjectly appalling notions about indigenous identity….
If you disagree with Professor Warren’s assault on the Indian landscape, please consider recording a brief statement on your mobile phone or laptop for the Natives United Against Warren campaign and submitting your message (warrendoesnotrepresentme@gmail) via e-mail.
The professor’s actions demand a vigorous and unmitigated response lest her destructive and assimilatory species of racist ruse—an increasingly grotesque variant of intellectual blackface—prevails.
More to come.  Trust me on that.

White, Far-Left, Socialist Politician Elizabeth Warren Listed Herself As Native American At U Penn


Elizabeth Warren is a liar and a scam artist who used minorities to get her way to the top:
Facing a flap over her past claims of Native American ancestry, Elizabeth Warren was identified as a minority faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania, where the Massachusetts Senate candidate worked from 1987 to 1995, according to the Associated Press.

A committee established to review the status of minorities on the faculty of the university produced a report which noted that only eight of the 112 awards given out during a 13-year span were given to minority teachers. Warren was listed among the eight minority teachers who had won a teacher award. The report was written in 2005, a decade after Warren had left the faculty at the University of Pennsylvania.

The new information gives more context to the claims of Warren’s opponent, Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), who slammed her earlier this week for “serious questions [that] have been raised about the legitimacy of Elizabeth Warren’s claims to Native American ancestry and whether it was appropriate for her to assume minority status as a college professor.”

Harvard Law School had previously touted Warren as a minority hire, and she had been listed as a minority in a law school directory between 1986 and 1995, according to the Boston Herald.

Other documents were also obtained by the Associated Press showing that she identified as “white” on an employment record at the University of Texas and, while applying for admission to Rutgers Law School, she declined to do so under a program for minority students.

Warren’s campaign insisted that the candidate had never leaned on her Native American roots.

“At every law school where Elizabeth was recruited to teach, it has been made absolutely clear she was hired based on merit; on her accomplishments and ability,” Warren spokeswoman Alethea Harney told the AP Thursday. “Documents from the college and law school from which she graduated show that Elizabeth did not seek special treatment by acknowledging her Native American heritage.”

Elisabeth Hasselbeck Unloads on Kathy Griffin, But Joy Behar Waters Down Smear of Scott Brown's Daughters; 'It Was Just a Joke'



On her Bravo show last Tuesday night, Kathy Griffin trashed Sen. Scott Brown's two daughters as "prostitutes." CNN reporter Dana Bash, who was present with her husband John King, erupted into laughter.

Yesterday on ABC's "The View," co-host Joy Behar tried to throw a wet blanket on the ensuing outrage over the "joke," which included condemnations of Griffin's comments by Scott Brown himself and by Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.).

"It's just a joke," Behar repeatedly affirmed during a heated exchange with co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who vehemently disagreed.

"No, no, no, no, no!" Hasselbeck exclaimed. "We've always said politicians' kids are off limits! If someone went around calling Barack Obama's two girls prostitutes, people would be up in arms. Laybacks! Kathy Griffin's got to back up on that one right now!"

Hasselbeck ripped Griffin as "scum" for her remarks. "You defend your daughters against scum who comes after them and calls them someone like a prostitute," Hasselbeck asserted about Scott Brown's condemnation of Griffin's "joke."

Joy Behar is such a bitch.

Scott Brown Rips Idiot Liberal "Comedian" Kathy Griffith For Calling Daughters "Prostitutes"


GOP Sen. Scott Brown is blasting comedian Kathy Griffin after she jokingly referred to his daughters as “prostitutes” on her new Bravo reality show. 

The segment, which aired Tuesday, featured CNN’s Dana Bash and John King quizzing Griffin on her political knowledge during a recent visit to Washington. When King held up a photo of Brown, Griffin identified him as “Scott Brown, who is a senator from Massachusetts and has two daughters that are prostitutes.” Within seconds, a "brief message from Bravo's legal team" scrolls up the screen: "Scott Brown's daughters ARE NOT prostitutes!!!" 

On Thursday, Brown trashed Griffin and Bravo for the low blow. “People can call me any name they want, but families are off limits,” the senator said in a statement quoted by Politico. “I love my daughters, Ayla and Arianna, very much, and any parent would be proud to have them as children. Kathy Griffin and Bravo ought to be ashamed of themselves.”

It should be noted that Brown’s daughters are indeed professionally accomplished, and employed in completely legal fashion. Arianna, 19, is a pre-med student at Syracuse University and part-time model. Ayla, 21, is a singer who appeared on "American Idol" and is a special correspondent for "The Early Show" on CBS.
Remember it was Barack Obama who time and time again said that families should be "off limits" when criticizing politicians. But of course. Kathy Griffith has been making quite a name for herself "joking" on conservatives and Republicans, Levi Johnston was stupid enough to let her use him as a pawn to bash Sarah Palin, Griffith continues to go after Elisabeth Hasselbeck whenever she gets the chance and now she has the gall to smear Scott Brown's daughter in a way that typifies the average liberal lowlife. Good for Senator Brown to call her out for the buffoon she is.

Ann Coulter Doesn't Think Sarah Palin Will Run For President, Calls Joe Biden A "Drunken Irishman"



I agree on both counts: Palin won't run in 2012 and Joe Biden remains a doofus.

Scott Brown, 41st GOP Senator, Is Sworn In



BTW, Joe Biden really thinks he's important now that he's second-in-command, doesn't he? So far, you're no Dick Cheney Joe. More like Dan Quayle.

Senator-Elect Scott Brown Demands To Be Sworn In Earlier Than Planned


YahooNews.com:
Massachusetts Republican Scott Brown changed course and demanded he be sworn in to replace the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy on Thursday, an accelerated timetable that conservatives had been clamoring for and one that Democrats quickly accepted — and had already been moving to accommodate.

Brown said he wanted to be present for unspecified votes, and his swearing-in would give the GOP 41 votes in the Senate — the precise number it needs to sustain a filibuster of Democratic initiatives.

Jim Manley, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, said he expected a ceremony at 5 p.m. Thursday.

"If that's what he wants to do, I expect he'll be sworn in as early as (Thursday) afternoon," Manley said.

The people of Massachusetts elected Scott Brown to be their senator two weeks ago. Seat him already.

Chris Matthews Pwnes Alan Grayson On Health Care Reform



Matthews isn't siding with conservatives so much as venturing whichever way the wind is blowing. Still nice to see Chrissy-boy school a leftwing a-hole like Grayson on live TV.

Tucker Carlson On MSNBC's Attempts To Smear Scott Brown



The saddest part about Olbermann, Matthews and the whole lot within the liberal press is that their egos won't let them get past the fact that their over-the-top partisanship isn't working with the majority of Americans. No one but the Left watches them. Yet, only 21% of Americans consider themselves to be "liberal" and that's their audience. That's it. But isn't the TV business supposed to be about ratings? I mean these guys don't even try to be objective anymore. The hate they spew for conservatives isn't being bought by the rest of America, yet they continue to smear anyway. It's embarrassing that the more they attack the Right, the less people listen. You'd think one of the higher-ups at MSNBC would be a tad bit unnerved by this.

Mass. Senator Scott Brown Wins Special Election To U.S. Senate


YahooNews.com:
In an epic upset in liberal Massachusetts, Republican Scott Brown rode a wave of voter anger to defeat Democrat Martha Coakley in a U.S. Senate election Tuesday that left President Barack Obama's health care overhaul in doubt and marred the end of his first year in office.

The loss by the once-favored Coakley for the seat that the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy held for nearly half a century signaled big political problems for the president's party this fall when House, Senate and gubernatorial candidates are on the ballot nationwide.

More immediately, Brown will become the 41st Republican in the 100-member Senate, which could allow the GOP to block the president's health care legislation and the rest of Obama's agenda. Democrats needed Coakley to win for a 60th vote to thwart Republican filibusters

The people of Massachusetts, a state owned by liberals for some 40-odd years, have now sent a clear message to Barack Obama: "Hope & Change" is now officially dead. Congratulations to Senator Brown.

Scott Brown For Mass. Senate, Stop The Obama Reign


FOXNews.com:
Nearly one year to the day after President Barack Obama was sworn into office as an agent of change, Senate candidates in the special election to succeed the late Edward M. Kennedy battled to the wire Monday in an election that threatened Obama's agenda and reflected voters' frustration.

Democrat Martha Coakley and Republican Scott Brown scoured the state for votes on the eve of the election, with the Democrats' 60-vote Senate supermajority at stake. The Democrats need all 60 votes in their caucus to overcome Republican procedural obstacles in the 100-seat Senate.

From a distance, the president made one last appeal in a TV ad for Coakley, his words reflecting how much was on the line for Democrats in the face of a surprisingly strong challenge by Republican Scott Brown in a state that hasn't elected a Republican senator since 1972.

"Every vote matters, every voice matters," Obama said in the ad that showed him campaigning with Coakley a day earlier. "We need you on Tuesday."

Obama needs Coakley, the state's attorney general, to win to deny Republicans the ability to block his initiatives -- specifically the near-complete health care plan -- with a crucial 41st Republican vote. A Coakley loss also would be an embarrassment, particularly because Obama has put so much political capital on the line.

Obama stans on the Left would like you to believe that despite being in office for almost a year now, Barack Obama still needs more time to deliver on his campaign promise of "hope and change". Ok fair enough. But if all Barry needs is more time then why do two-thirds of Americans still feel that this country is headed in the wrong direction?

Perhaps it's because Barack Obama has never shown himself to be a man interested in serving to the best interests of all Americans, only the immoral, corrupt white, liberal minions in his base. That's why unemployment rates are currently seeing record numbers (10% for the country, 16% for Blacks). That's why Barry's pushing for more government power and control for health care "reform" Americans don't want or need. That's why the President of the Left attempts to bully cap-and-trade legislation that will do nothing but destroy our economy. That's why he's overturned stem-cell legislation, wants to set free terrorists and give them Miranda rights. That's why he ignores continued slights to the black community at large, but has no problem helping the gays any chance he gets.

That said, a victory for Scott Brown today means much more than just a Senate seat, it's about Americans, even in a liberally-pwned state like Massachusetts, saying enough is enough to a man who only has the interests of one-fifth of Americans at heart. So regardless if Scott Brown wins or loses today, not only will Americans be taking a stand to liberal terrorism, but we'll begin to serve fair warning to Barack Obama that if he doesn't start serving to the best interests of all Americans, his presidency will end up as abysmal as Jimmy Carter's.

Chris Matthews Predicts Victory For Scott Brown



Shocking that a liberal prick like Matthews would pick Brown, but it sure tells you something about how much the Left took people's reaction to ObamaCare for granted. People want jobs, not healthcare "reform".

Joe Lieberman To Endorse Scott Brown?!?


BeforeItsNews.com:
Joe Lieberman may be close to announcing his suppport for Massachusetts Senate Candidate Scott Brown. Citing the historical Healthcare Reform Bill as the main issue attracting Lieberman to endorse Brown's Campaign. Scott Brown is vehemently opposed to the proposed Healthcare Legislation.

Joe Lieberman has run against many of his Democratic Counterparts in the Senate over the so called Obamacare Health Care Reform Bill. Back in December, with the public option dead, Democrats revived an old proposal to expand Medicare, but Lieberman voted no. That plan was considered by a small percentage of liberals as a decent alternative to the public option leaving Lieberman at odds with Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid.

Speculation is such that if Lieberman were to endorse Scott Brown over the coming weekend that would most likely seal the defeat of Martha Coakley for Senate.

Latest Polling has Brown leading Coakley by a margin of 1 to 4 points. Momentum has shifted dramaticllay in the past week providing an intense national media attention. At stake is Helathcare Reform as well as further momentum to provide possible further shocking Election Results in this falls mid term elections.

Damn, this would be a major blow to Coakley and yet another kick in the rear to all the crazy loons on the Left who smeared Lieberman out of the Democrat party a few years ago. But hey, he's an independent now so he's beholden to no one. Go Joe!

Desperate Obama To Campaign For Martha Coaxley In Bid To Keep 'Ted Kennedy's Seat'


NYTimes.com:
In a last-ditch effort to avert a debacle for the Democrats, the White House announced that President Obama would campaign here on Sunday for Martha Coakley, the Democratic Senate candidate, amid growing signs that the race for Edward M. Kennedy’s Senate seat has become too close to call.

With a new Suffolk University/7 News poll showing the race in a virtual tie, the announcement is fraught with political peril for Mr. Obama — particularly if Ms. Coakley loses the seat to the Republican, State Senator Scott Brown. Nonetheless, the president’s advisers concluded that Mr. Obama’s fortunes were already tied to the outcome of the race, so there was no reason to keep him away from Massachusetts.

The special election for the seat is on Tuesday. Several polls in recent days indicated that Ms. Coakley was losing an earlier lead, and the Suffolk poll showed Mr. Brown with 50 percent of the vote and Ms. Coakley with 46 percent, a result within the poll’s four percentage point margin of sampling error.

Mr. Obama has already urged Democrats to the polls in a video message and recorded telephone messages. But with his principal domestic policy initiative at stake — Mr. Brown has already said he would be the 41st and crucial vote against the health care bill — the president decided to risk embarrassment and hit the stump.

Wow, but I guess Barry was left with no choice but to help this chick out. Martha Coakley's taken this whole race for granted, making a half-hearted effort to campaign for a senator's seat because she's a Democrat. Too bad for her, we're in 2010, not 2009....liberals can't blame George W. Bush for everything anymore, Americans aren't seeing any "change" (much less "hope) and this race has a lot riding on the line, more specifically Barry's legacy. Only problem here is that someone may need to remind Barry that he's nowhere near as popular as he was a year ago. Indeed, the Teleprompter-In-Chief's reassured charm and smugness isn't working on Americans anymore, just ask outgoing governor Jon Corzine, who Barry pushed for heavily to get re-elected in liberal New Jersey last month, and still lost. Now Obama's faced with the risk of totally humiliating himself if somehow Scott Brown beats Coakley next week, his whole presidency goes in the mud, much less no more health care reform. Funny that.
