Here’s pretty much all you need to know about last night’s Democratic Senate primary slapfight on WCVB:
The phrase “treading on dangerous water” was uttered up to several times during the televised debate.
Not to get technical about it, but:
1) The proper phrase is “treading on dangerous ground”
2) Treading on any water is inherently dangerous
Okay – on to the players:
Stephen “Stevey Healthcare” Pagliuca (D-ATM) pounded away at his support for Obamacare legislation regardless of how much it might restrict women’s already restricted access to abortion.
Martha “Am I Senator Yet?” Coakley (D-Sensitized) continued to run out the clock.
Michael “Hey, Call Me Mike” Capuano (D-Kennedy) continued to run his mouth.
Alan “Alan” Khazei (D-???) continued to run.
Wake me on December 9th.
Must have been thrilling.
Point: Treading IN dangerous water can be dangerous….
‘Nother Point: Why do I get the feeling that all of these candidates are water treaders until they can retire, and then they become wealth retirees.
