President Obama, being the megalomaniac that he is, will only venture to Massachusetts before the Tuesday election to help Martha Coakley defeat Scott Brown, if he knows that it will reflect positively on him.
He learned his lesson in Copenhagen when he arrived on short notice to take credit (he thought) for bringing the 2016 Summer Olympics to Chicago, his home town.
It was decided if he went to Copenhagen, and Chicago was chosen, he could take all the credit. He would even take the extra credit that may have been attributed to his wife, who happened to arrive earlier in the week as Obama’s representative.
If he did not go and Chicago was not chosen, he would be blamed locally by his homeboys for not showing up to help.
This Massachusetts Senate race has similarities to Copenhagen that should not be ignored by the press.
This Senate race is so close, Obama is going to have to roll the dice and decide at the last minute if he should make an appearance or stay away.
If the “experts” tell him it will be close, but she will win, he will swoop in and pretend to save her and show the left that he still has coattails.
The scenario of Coakley losing will go something like this. Keep Obama home and let her dangle on the end of her political rope, and then allow the pundits to claim later that she was a weak candidate and most considered her political toast by the political experts.
As I see it, this election could well be another brick in the wall that will fence Obama out in 2012.
He had bricks of rejection thrown through his political windows late last year from New Jersey and Virginia.
Obama is still smarting from the glass breakage from 2009.
