Keeping up with Granny ain’t easy (Lieawatha at it again)
Boston Herald ^ | 8/1/2012 | Howie Carr

Posted on 08/01/2012 6:20:00 AM PDT by pietraynor

How does Granny Warren do it? I mean, do you know how much time it must take, saving capitalism and simultaneously providing the “intellectual foundations” of Occupy Wall Street, which wanted to destroy capitalism?

Talk about keeping balls in the air. She’s both an Indian and “Okie to her toes.”

She makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year for doing practically nothing at filthy-rich Harvard University, which has an endowment of $32 billion and she wishes that we could run our society as efficiently as dirt-poor China.

But the Morons in Mass only look to the right of the name on the ballot. If it has "D" there, they pull the lever.

Being Democrat means never having to bother thinking.

I don’t know why Howie doesn’t get the obvious. She is just a seat warmer until Joke3 gets one term in the House under his belt. Then she will resign and Deval will appoint him to “Ted Kennedy’s Seat”. Benjamin A. Smith did the same for Ted in 1960. Why else would Mass DNC have to turn to someone from OK to run instead of the seven huge egos left in the House?

Wasn’t always that way here and it wasn’t that way in the last election.

As good a columnist as Howie Carr is and as correct about Princess Liawatha he is the very sad fact still remains that she's gonna win.Osama Omama is gonna have *huge* coattails here and those coattails will carry her to victory.

That,boys and girls,is just how far the People's Democratic Republic of Massachusetts has sunk in the last 40 years.

She's out-fundraising Brown, with 60% of her contributions from out-of-state. 66% of Brown's donations are from within Massachusetts. According to the few polls I've seen, she and Brown are in a dead heat, despite the fact that she is a proven liar and manipulator and so far to the political left that she ought to be propelled right into the Pacific Ocean.

At the moment, it looks like the Democrats have a strong chance of snatching back "Ted Kennedy's seat".

An example of an idiotic Warren donor:

For the most part, it was the first time Warren’s supporters gave to a candidate outside their state.

Katherine Ross said she did so because she was impressed by Warren and her advocacy for the middle class. Ross is a lawyer in Denver, Colo., and went to Harvard Law School, but never had a class with Warren as the professor.

“I think that what’s she saying is not radical at all,” Ross said. “I think what she’s saying is extremely common sense. And I think she’s extraordinarily good at getting the message across — that this is not a party issue, this is not class warfare, this is simple fairness.”

I don't think the Kennedys have quite the same clout here as they once did.And if she gets in I doubt that she'll be easy to force out.The Senate is a pretty damn good gig...much better than the House or the State House.

Are you sure you understand just how bad the senior Senator from Chappaquiddick was?

That’s why Deval will appoint him. Scott won the last time on the “it’s not the Kennedy seat” meme. Having Joke3 run now is still to close to that. The Kennedys want a rigged game.

Oh I understand, he was my Senator for 43 years.

This thing is worse. I don’t want to see what she is going to do to us. God help us.

And she is “Okie to her toes”, as well. Isn’t “Okie” supposed to be code for “hick”, or “bumpkin”, or even “redneck cowboy”(or “cowgirl”, as the case may be)?

I don't see it. Scott Brown will have a lot of Democrats voting for him this year. Elizabeth Warren might appeal to the snotty limousine liberals of Brookline and Cambridge but the working class Democrats outside the Rte 128 area will vote for Brown in large numbers - just like they did in 2010.

Don't be surprised to see Mitt do very well here also. I'm not predicting Mitt will beat Obama in Massachusetts but it will be a lot closer than many people think. I am predicting Mitt takes nearby New Hampshire.

She'll become the senate version of Nancy Pelosi. We may soon be dreaming nostalgically of the Golden Days of Fat Ted.

You’re right. People from Oklahoma take “Okie” as a slur. They are “Sooners”. This woman is not only a liar, she is an ignoramus.

The “Okie” connotations of a backwards hick came about during the dust bowl migration of many Oklahomans to California.

Massachusetts needs ousting from the Union if they’re gonna inflict this miserable fraud and phony on the nation.

I like your optimism (and sure hope you're right!).

Time will tell.
