The Cambridge Police Officers Association endorsed Scott Brown yesterday. He's picked up other police endorsements as well, including the State Police. The endorsements don't say much good about Coakley, who served as Middlesex County Prosecuting Attorney and is the current Attorney General of the state.


Esp. if you remember that Martha Coakley's husband is a retired member of the Cambridge Police Officers Association.

This is the most ringing endorsement of Coakley I've seen. Of course, I haven't been following the Dem endorsements too carefully. <g>

" Let’s get this out of the way. You might not want to vote for Martha Coakley. You might think she deserves what’s she’s getting after an absentee, self-satisfied campaign (why should I bail her out?). You likely want to send a message to everyone from the attorney general all the way to every Democratic official in Washington, DC. Odds are you didn’t vote for her in the primary. And, you might be wondering if it’ll make a difference who wins this Tuesday.

You got every reason to be pissed, but it needs to be clear: not voting for Coakley is the same as voting for Brown. And voting for Brown is a very, very bad thing."
