I've watched this video at least a dozen times -
Its clear that Meehan pushes the reporter away from Coakley with his left arm after he squeezes between the two of them - the unfortunate part is that it seems neither Meehan or the reporter sees that small fence that causes the fall.
Its even more unfortunate for Coakley that she kept on moving while Meehan continues to push the reporter away, while demanding credentials even though all of them were on a public street. Ignoring the event speaks about her abilities as Attorney General.
More unfortunate than that is this is the same reporter who made Coakley very uncomfortable by asking about her Afghanistan statement during the debate, whcih caused a deer in the headlights moment for her.
The most unfortunate of all is that there are pictures and video of the entire event. And only a week to perform damage control.
Coakley had this election in the bag, and she and her minions are doing their level best to ensure defeat.
edit: ensure vs insure - stupid spellchecker...
