Embarrassing

If you want to lose a seat you should win, it doesn't help to run in a tough environment -- BUT -- the killer was the fact that Scott Brown ran a good campaign and Martha Coakley was about as bad a candidate as a person can be:

A reporter from the Boston Globe asked if she was being too passive. “As opposed to standing outside Fenway Park? In the cold? Shaking hands?'' Coakley bristled.

Yeah, that's what politicians do bonehead. You deserved to lose -- probably bigger than you did.
