This is unbelievable, really, the kind
of thing that reveals why Elizabeth Warren, the Democrats' choice to
unseat incumbent U.S. Senator Scott Brown in Massachusetts, just isn’t
ready for primetime. If the people around you aren't schooled and
trained in the very basics of not manhandling and dropping f-bombs while
you’re being videotaped, you really have no business being a Senator.
If you’re asking yourself what's a
Republican doing following Warren with a camera; this is standard
operating procedure on both sides now. The opposition tracks the
candidate on video and looks for moments just like this one.
Which is another reason this is the
last thing that should've happened. Warren and her staff should've been
100% prepared for this. "Horrible judgment" doesn’t even begin to
describe this. Moreover, the video proves no one on Team Warren was at
all provoked.
And where's Warren's leadership? She
couldn't be more than a few feet away, and yet like a Boss, she just
sits there as her thug roughs somebody up.
"The Weekly Standard" reminds us this has happened before:
This isn't the first time a
Massachusetts Democratic Senate candidate staff member has roughed up
someone on the trail. In 2010, WEEKLY STANDARD staff writer John
McCormack was knocked down on a Washington sidewalk by Democratic
operative Michael Meehan while McCormack attempted to ask Senate
candidate Martha Coakley a question.
