Title truncated. Real title: Pollster Frank Luntz having difficulty finding Coakley supporters for focus group on election night of Massachusetts senate race.
Just about every election night, Republican pollster Frank Luntz assembles a focus group of likely voters to help predict election results. Tonight you can see Luntz interview an assembly of Massachusetts voters on Fox at 9:10 p.m. EST.
But you probably won’t see all the work that went into it. As of late this afternoon, Luntz was still scrambling to balance his focus group with supporters of Democrat Martha Coakley. “I just lost another one,” Luntz growled over his cell phone from a hotel ballroom at Logan Airport. In the last 24 hours, six Coakley voters have dropped out. By contrast, Luntz hasn’t lost a single supporter of her opponent, Scott Brown.
The problem isn’t money. “They’re getting paid well,” Luntz says, “probably more than they’re making at their jobs. And they still don’t want to do it.”
Instead, says Luntz, they’re ashamed. “They don’t want to be on television defending Martha Coakley. It’s passé. It’s socially unacceptable. I never dreamed I’d see Democrats in Massachusetts embarrassed to admit they’re Democrats.”

Let’s hope this is NOT a passing phase......PRAY!!
I tnink I saw a couple holed up under the main street overpass!
He doesn’t say he is having trouble finding people who voted for Coakley. He says he is having trouble finding people who voted for her who will admit it on television.
I think Scott Brown personally killed them all. At least that what Coakley’s campaign and Keith Olberdork said.
Luntz is a putz, anyway.
He practically shilled for 0bama during those debate forums.
Beck says it is now Democrats vs. Progressive Communists.
It was this or watch a Frank Luntz "focus group."
Whoops...I posted as you posted. Maybe the mods could delete mine.
LOL. That may be related to the fact that Obamacare is so hideous the Dems want to keep it a secret until they vote on it.
If I want to watch a room full of people regurgitating campaign slogans, I’ll be sure to tune in to the next Frank Luntz Focus Group. Oh wait, I need to clean up some dog doodoo.
Pick her Frank. She doesn't believe in personal appearance, deodorant, or mouthwash, but she supports Martha.
