"Lawyer’s sticker campaign puts Coakley in a new battle" by Stephanie Ebbert and Frank Phillips, Globe Staff | September 17, 2010
Although the battle is a steep one for the political unknown, James McKenna’s foray into the race seems to have upended Attorney General Martha Coakley’s political assumptions for a second time this year....
I wonder who put such thoughts in her head.

Looks like she has a challenger after all!!
Coakley said she is proud of her record as attorney general, fighting on behalf of consumers and taxpayers, and cited recent work challenging adult listings on Craigslist and opposing a National Grid rate increase.
I guess some people can insulate themselves with delusions forever.
:-(
But seemingly mindful of the write-in threat yesterday, she reached out to supporters shortly after McKenna’s nomination was confirmed.
“It’s a privilege to be your AG,’’ she posted on Twitter. “I’m looking forward to this race & ask for your vote on 11/2.’’
I think you need to get outside more.
Didn't you learn anything last January?
State Democrats said they were confident Coakley has recovered her political footing after January’s devastating loss....
That almost guarantees a loss these days.
Convinced she had no opposition, Coakley agreed to a campaign spending cap that would award her campaign anywhere from $55,000 to $75,000 in public financing....
Why was she GETTING TAX MONEY she allegedly had NO OPPONENT??
And YOUR SERVICES are being SLASHED, Massachusetts?
McKenna previously worked in prosecutor’s offices in Columbus, Ohio, Suffolk County, and Worcester. He also teaches at Worcester Polytechnic Institute as an adjunct professor of law and ethics.
Gives you some hope.
Since 1998, he has been in private practice, mostly as a defense lawyer representing insurance companies....
Then he should feel right at home in government.
He also intends to crack down on illegal immigration and said Coakley sent a mixed message with her previous statement that, “Technically, it’s not illegal to be illegal in Massachusetts.’’ McKenna would require proof of citizenship of anyone arraigned on criminal charges.
Actually, Coakley told the truth.
Anyone else on the ballot?
Maybe I will write in my neighbor this time.
