I Meant To Say, "And Then Immediately Called For Help"

So, you've decided to weigh in on the Massachussetts senate race. You're a Coakley supporter. You want to point out how her opponent is a Republican and thus 100% responsible for every economic woe ever suffered by America. Oh, also, the seat in contention was held by the late Ted Kennedy. What do you say?

“Why would you hand the keys to the car back to the same guys whose policies drove the economy into the ditch and then walked away from the scene of the accident?"

Smooth move, ex-lax.
