9. Martha was a good candidate--she held her own in debate, she campaigned well, she had

a great platform, but Phoney Boo Hoo (who cried on TV) outspent her. His ads were everywhere. Hers were not. She didn't have anywhere near the cash for media saturation like he did.

And MA is sexist. In order to elect a woman in MA, we have to work ten times as hard and spend ten times as much. It's a sad truth.

Deval Patrick, Ed Markey, and Liz Warren campaigned for and stood with Martha when she conceded. If you have any regard for them, know that they had very high regard for Martha.

Giunta is a sleaze of the first order. That was a criminal election result, in more ways than one.

Since Scottie was born in Maine, maybe he'll return to the state of his birth, and lose against a woman up there!!! Three-peat!!!!!!!
