"Sometimes it's more important to travel hopefully than to arrive." Coakley
That was part of her concession speech.

Guess that was her Christmas vacation motto.

5. I listened to her concession talklette.
How the HELL did she win the primary?

The first word that came to mind was "Clueless." The second, "Inept."

Frankly, I was offended by her tone and her positions. On one hand, we have national democrats, even the president, asking the nation's Ds to help, to throw money at Ted Kennedy's seat. (that alone is jaw dropping). And on the other hand, we have a White House that had no clue that their appointed replacement for Ted was lazy, a miserable campaigner, arrogant, foolish, and unaware of the facts on the ground. Plus the candidate who attacks a reporter for asking if she was going to put feet to concrete and introduce herself to potential voters. (She said no) Finally, she gave off, even in her concession, this aura of entitlement, of arrogance, and frankly, of surprise that she won't be going to DC for life.
