Unicorn Rider to the Rescue… Obama Will Fly to Beantown to Save Coakley
Posted by Jim Hoft on Friday, January 15, 2010, 3:44 PM
It’s magic time.
(Art of Obama)
The White House announced that Barack Obama will fly into Boston this weekend to save the floundering Coakley campaign.
WBZTV reported:
The White House is clearly worried Martha Coakley could lose next week’s special U.S. Senate election to Republican Scott Brown.
President Obama will now visit Massachusetts before Tuesday to help her campaign, the Associated Press is reporting.
The timing of the visit is uncertain.
Earlier Friday, he recorded a robocall for her.
Listen: The Obama robocall
Here’s the script, which was released this morning.
Hi, this is President Barack Obama. I rarely make these calls and I truly apologize for intruding on your day. But I had to talk to you about the election in Massachusetts on Tuesday because the stakes are so high.
In Washington, I’m fighting to curb the abuses of a health insurance industry that routinely denies care. I’m fighting for financial reforms to stop Wall Street from playing havoc with our economy. I’m fighting to create a new clean energy economy and it’s clear now that the outcome of these and other fights will probably rest on one vote in the United States Senate.
We know where Martha Coakley stands. As your attorney general, Martha has taken on Wall Street’s schemes, insurance company abuses and big polluters on your behalf. She represents the best progressive values of Massachusetts. She’ll be your voice and my ally.
But a lot of people don’t even realize there is an election on Tuesday to fill the unexpired term of Ted Kennedy. They don’t realize why it’s so important. So please, come out to vote for Martha Coakley. And make sure everyone you know understands the stakes for their families, Massachusetts and our country.
But, the real question is… Will they be able to keep her from yammering until he gets there?
The Chicago Olympics, Corzine, Creigh Deeds… Will Coakley be next?
…Let’s hope Boston is the Copenhagen of the West.

I hear Clinton will be in Boston too, maybe Obama will serve him coffee.

Hopefully, his run-to-the-rescue in Boston will have the same effect as his Olympics bid for Chicago.
Chisum commented:
“Game Change” on Obama
In other words: he claims credit for others’ ideas, brags when “his” ideas turn out to work and -when he is not unnaturally apathetic (oh..sorry..calm) he is filled to the brim with hubris and ego.
Great guy….

Wasn’t this the same guy who flew into Copenhagen to stump for the Chicago Olympics? And to New Jersey for Corzine? Didn’t he make an appearance with Creigh Deeds as well? This guy is so full of himself.

Sounds like he is appealing to the Democratic Base to me!

Obama can’t help himself much less anyone else…
It’s entertaining to witness the communists re-arrainging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
jojo commented:
Why doesn’t he fly to Haiti and drop off the 1.4 mil Nobel prize cash? Or will he sit on it until we’ve ‘forgotten’ about it?

Barack the magic light skinned Negro
Justasisuspected! commented:
I swear these people are all on drugs! If I were Coakley I tell him to stay the h*** away from me.Thankfully, she won’t and maybe this may push MA voters over the top to vote for Brown. Her whole campaign has be one giant fiasco after another. She has proven to the rest of the country just how stupid and insane the elitist Demorats have become and how ignorant they think we American citizens are. Gee, the great MAN is coming, wow I’m Oppressed. Maybe he will be able to scurry up a few squirrels with the ACORNS he has.

The One can yank defeat out of th jaws of victory. Coakly just needed to do nothing and win it automatically. Looks like she can eat some crow.
Joanne commented:
He’s probably just riding in on his horse to make sure ACORN is on the job.
Toomuch! commented:
Obummer is coming to help count all the votes that the Purpleshi*ts have in the trunks of their cars….just to make sure they have enough to make it look like Crooked Croakley won by a narrow margin, not too over the top!
Dell commented:
“Hello, this is President Barack Obama. I have many great plans that I conceived and I am ramming down your throats in Washington, DC. I need another rubber stamp Democrat vote in the Senate. I know she’s a dip-wad and says lots of really stupid things, but I need you to vote for her because she will vote FOR everything I am creating for America. I know your taxes are high…and they’ll be going up again very soon…unless you’re a member of a union, of course….but it’s important because, ya know…well….this is Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat and you can really afford more taxes, right? I thought so! In closing, I know that thousands of you are out of work, so you should be able to get to the polls and vote this Tuesday. If not, just contact my ACORN representatives and they’ll vote for you! Thank you….Oh, and ….GO RED SOX”
Pawn commented:
Barak just needs cover to have a few local meetings with the folks who are busy “coding” the votes.
Maria commented:
He has a horrible track record, same as Bill Clinton. Whatever “popularity” they may have does not transfer. As a resident of NJ I can attest to that. Just ask Corzine.
Just A Grunt commented:
She represents the best progressive values of Massachusetts.
That sentence says it all. The Progressive wing, i.e., the Kossacks, and DUers are determined to take over the Democrat party. It also shows that this current administration is not about meeting in the middle or interested in moderation.
Hard left, Full Speed Ahead, Damn the Torpedos!
Ladue Pundit commented:
Coakley (and the Democrats) have nothing to lose. They’re hitting the bricks.
Obama will be rousing his base:
ACORN-vote early and vote often
SEIU-voter intimidation
Black Panther Party-poll watchers
Tea Partiers-Get ready to greet El Presidente!
jorgen commented:
O’barmy will probably mainly be drumming voters up on the cemeteries in the best ACORN style.
Hopefully he will be Copenhagened on election day.
Ladue Pundit commented:

Hey, I read that Obama’s Boston visit will be on Sunday.
While he’s there, maybe he can attend Mass at a few Boston parishes, and urge Catholics to avoid careers in emergency rooms, and preferably in any medical field.
He and Martha deserve each other. What a pair of jerks.
Jeff commented:
I’m sure there won’t be any opportunity for a Tea Party protest outside the venue Obama appears at … naw …

Wonder what kind of stepped-up security they’re going to have at the polling places? I don’t see these guys going gently into the night. Glad the cops have endorsed Brown.

Ouch!
daryl commented:
Strong support for ones party is a given and expected from whomever inhabits the Oval Office, but this flying off to ACTIVELY CAMPAIGN for someone floundering in the polls on the tax payers dime shouldn’t be happening. Especially when the country and its economy is in the dire straits we now find ourselves experiencing.
Your priorities suck obama!
pm commented:
Heard a pundit this AM say that this Monday is MLK,Jr. Day, so BO will probably use it to urge Blacks, who’ve largely been uninterested in this race, to get out and vote.
Let *every* American wake up. This man, this administration, are nothing but enemies to all that we hold dear. The corruption, the lies, the thuggery, must end.
VOTE SCOTT BROWN. This is a blessed opportunity to stop the insanity. Please, Massachusetts, send the message loud and clear.

Video: (President Obama video, voice over)
“In Washington, I’m fighting to curb the abuses of the health insurance industry”.
Fade to video of the Coakley invitation to her lasted fund raiser in Washington, D.C
Out of the 21 people you see on this invitation, 17 of them are lobbyists for the health insurance industry or big Pharma. These are the people that Martha Coakley went to when she needed campaign funds. I ask you; do you believe that she will vote against the very people she ask for campaign funds from? Do you really want someone representing you that is already beholding to the health insurance industry?”
I’m Scott Brown and I approve this message”
What a chance he has to make her look like a total sell out. Hopefully, he’ll take it.
WRJonas commented:
I recall when Republican Presidents flew on AF One that the press constantly reminded us the expenses had to be re reimbursed from The National Party if political campaigning was the reason for the trip.
I want to see the check from Obama on this one.

Unicornboy is going to Mass. so when the dems stuff the ballot boxes they can claim that Obama’s last minute poop talk got out the voters.

I’m fighting to create a new clean economy and it’s clear now that this won’t happen unless we clean out the United States Congress.”

And a Democratic pollster called Obama ‘toxic’, with horrible poll numbers.
If anything, I think Obama may put Brown over the top!!

Tea party attack! Make your presence known to the masses in Ma. Obama’s poll’s are at 44% he is lower than Coakley. This is gonna be good. He has the Midas touch in reverse, everything Obama touvhes turns to excrement. We surround you! NOTUS this!
powder is dry.

just my cynical self..
what if Obama et al figure out a way to sabotage Brown’s votes by
injecting a mass of fraudulent votes/ballots ala ACORN style??
a tactic i most certainly wouldn’t put past Obama/them.. *sigh*

penny commented:
Obama is taking a huge risk here putting his face on what could be a big Dem failure. So either they know the election is in the bag for Coakley or his WH handlers are more dumber than rocks than I think they are.
I’m sick of having the uninformed mob that pays no income taxes and has no skin in the game determine election outcomes. That’s who Obama’s presence is directed at. Pathetic isn’t it that without Obama’s visit and direct call to action they would sit on their clueless butts on election day.

He sent an e-mail to Obama supporters assailing Republican Scott Brown for opposing the president’s plan to tax large Wall Street firms to recoup money from the bailout.]

Martha Coakley ‘75 Washington Fundraiser tonight
[Martha Coakley has a big fundraiser in Washington this evening if anyone is interested in attending. $1000 a plate for guests. See below the fold for an image of the invitation. The “hosts” for the event are people who have raised $10,000 each for Coakley. Here’s a newspaper article detailing the hosts:
Coakley Hosts
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.]

Sojourner commented:
Pssst.. Mr. President, you could’ve just met Coakley at that BIG Pharma lobbyist event earlier this week in DC…
But now that you and Joe are heading to MA to say more dumb things together on our dime, please give a hat tip to those ‘stupid’ Cambridge police who’ll be doing their job while you’re there..
(Godspeed Scott Brown!)
