Obama comes to help the wrong candidate

by Bryan Strawser · Jan 18, 2010

The President comes to town to help his senate candidate, Martha Coakley, and finds, perhaps a bit of a cold reception.

The Boston Herald opines:

He may have come to town to fight for his agenda, but there is a growing body of evidence that his agenda – on health care, on energy, even on financial regulatory reform (which somehow the president equates with yet another tax on the banks that actually repaid their government loans) – isn’t what the people of Massachusetts are looking for right now.

Tomorrow, we’ll see if Scott Brown can turn his lead in the polls into reality – and become the first Republican elected to the Senate from the Bay State in a very long time.
