Senate race nearing finish line for Dems

This Democrat Senate primary is accomplishing the impossible. It’s making the Mumbles-Flats fight for mayor of Boston seem downright exciting.
It all comes down to the moonbat turnout. They’re depressed, demoralized, Devaled - and by the way, if Deval were a chicken in the oven, his little white temperature button would have popped up by now. Stick a fork in him, he’s done. But that’s next year’s story.
Let’s look at the Senate candidates with a mere one day to go, not that we’re counting the days until it’s over.
Martha Coakley: Have you seen a male in her TV ads, other than the dog I mean? If you want to know which men in your neighborhood are henpecked, check out the houses with the Coakley yard signs out front.
I wouldn’t go so far as to say if her name were Martin Coakley, her candidacy would be a joke. But what exactly is the rationale here, other than payback for Shannon O’Brien? Take that, Mitt! And never forget what John Silber did to Evelyn Murphy. Or was it Frank Bellotti?She is woman, hear her roar, or is it purr? But she does have male supporters - every lawyer in the Legislature who wants to succeed her as attorney general.
Steve Pagliuca: Is the frontrunner for this year’s Chris Gabrieli Lifetime Achievement Award. He’s finding out the hard way that the male sports fan is a mighty small caucus in the Democratic primary electorate.
One problem is that the handful of people (okay, men) who might be inclined to vote for Pags now have to convince themselves that he’s been lying to them in all those TV spots in which he claims to be a moonbat. Oh, and by the way, Pags has apparently never heard of DVR. Most of the people in his campaign’s target demos don’t watch TV ads anymore. They fast-forward through them.
If I were one of Pags’ consultants, I’d want my last paycheck wired directly to the bank. Before the results start coming in Tuesday night.
Mike Capuano: The only candidate who’s running against Dick Cheney. Has full-blown Potomac fever, boring everyone with committee-assignment talk and his votes. Endorsement from Barney Frank should be good for at least a dozen votes.
Mumbles’ organization is behind him in Boston, apparently as payback for Martha’s zeal in going after the Mumbles e-mail “scandal,” except of course in reality she did everything but personally deliver Mike Kineavy’s City Hall hard-drive to a trash compactor.
Alan Khazei: His theory of victory, such as it is: If you give Democrats a choice between a moonbat and a moonbat, they’ll pick the moonbat every time. That steady 4 or 5 percent he gets in the polls was most likely going to drift off in the final days to Capuano. But now the Globe has endorsed him, and it could sway as many votes his way as that big Barney Frank nod for Capuano.
Three guys, one woman = woman wins.
