Then it's a lock the Dems will win. The media is going to go to bat for the Dems here and show them getting beat down in the polls, and should embelish that fact if they're smart. Barack absolutely cannot afford another "Loss" when he makes a personal visit to drum up support. There is no way they'd allow him to go if they thought they'd be losing.
If Barack goes to bat for the Dems in MA and they still lose, healthcare and his Presidency will be finished..
"Cowardice asks the question 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is itPolitic?' Vanity asks the question 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right."

Just like he went to help Corzine?! Obama is really going to look like a fool if Brown wins this one.
Is ACORN not in Boston?

Read your first post and tell me that's not desperation. You said if MA gos to Brown, Obama is finished, if that's not desperation I don't know what is.

He'd be worse off if he goes there and they still lose than if they lose and he's not directly tied to the loss, wouldn't you agree..?

He also went to Copenhagen and stumped for the Olympics and lost.

No I do not agree, if MA goes to Brown he's finished, makes no difference if he goes or not. The reason he is going is because he is desperate and is doing everything he can so that does not happen.
