class @ALoginModel extends Backbone.Model
   defaults: ->
      username:     ''
      password:     ''
      state:        @notAuthState # This is where you set the initial state.
      stateDetails: ''

   # Define constants to represent the various states and give them descriptive
   # values to help with debugging.
