Take it for what it’s worth, but the inner circle of Martha Coakley, candidate for the Senate seat that has been vacant since the death of Ted Kennedy, may be sweating bullets.

Why is that such a big deal, you’re wondering? It has absolutely nothing to do with me at all. But it does have to do with people who are advisers to Barack  Obama. These “advisers” apparently don’t like the chances of Coakley winning the Massachusetts senatorial seat, according to Democratic sources.

They state that they’re still hopeful that the President’s visit to Massachusetts on Sunday will go a long ways towards seeing Coakley topple candidate Scott Brown, with help from Democratic activists.

I tend to think that the late visit by Obama will not help Coakley at all; come to think of it, it will hurt Coakley and help Brown, because of:

• Coakley is out of touch. Her take on healthcare reform is outdated and completely out-of-synch with what the citizens of Massachusetts want.
• The reporter incident. Pictures don’t lie, folks. It’s been plastered all over the place. One of Coakley’s staff did a body check on an American Standard reporter who was looking to ask Coakley a single question. That kind of behavior smacks of Chicago-style politics, to a degree.
• Coakley’s misrepresentation of Brown. Her obvious distortion of Brown’s record will come to haunt her 24 hours from today.
• She can’t “define” herself. Usually, a candidate has a platform that they stand by. Coakley hasn’t really given voters an idea of what she’s all about. Brown, on the other hand, has informed these voters about what he stands for – in spades.
• Her distaste of using the “R” word. Like being a Republican is the equivalent of being a political leper. Which is what she is doing by slamming Brown.
• Terrorists in Afghanistan snafu. You’ve probably seen the clip where she said that terrorists are no longer in Afghanistan. We all know that they are there in droves. Again, she’s out of touch or incredibly naive on that subject.
• The negative Brown ads. This certainly will not help Coakley when the voters go to the polling place on Tuesday. Some of the ads include the UPS-like “What can Brown do to you?” ad, the “Let’s look under Scott Brown’s hood” ad, and last but certainly not least, the completely tasteless ad in which the superimposed face of Brown is in front of a burning World Trade Center. That folks, is a sign of a desperate candidate.

All of these missteps will ensure that she does not get elected to “the people’s seat” and allow her to remain the Attorney General of the state of Massachusetts. See there, Martha? Even I can spell Massachusetts.

So there you have it, people. If you’re a voter who resides in the district in where this election is taking place, you have more than enough incentive to go to the polling place near you and pull the lever for Scott Brown. Trust me on this – the nation’s healthcare rides on this special election. A vote for Coakley ensures that your healthcare options get decidedly worse. A vote for Brown, on the other hand, will put the nail in the coffin for Obamacare.
