MA Senate Special Election Game Thread

[UNHWildCats]

disturbing early numbers from Boston. 4% in and Brown only down 3 points there. Coakley with big leads in other big cities, but she needs a big win in Boston for any chance to win. Hopefully these Boston numbers begin changing.

[Col Hogan]

Brown, a Massachusetts state senator, had 52 percent of the vote to 47 percent for state Attorney General Martha Coakley, the Democratic contender, with 30 percent of precincts reporting in results from the National Election Pool, a consortium of media organizations including CNN. Independent candidate Joseph Kennedy, a libertarian who is not related to the Kennedy political family of Massachusetts, had 1 percent.

Brown is pulling away slightly. He'll need the cushion for when the majority of the moonbat votes from Boston come in.

Boston is 66% in. Prolly safe to say Congrats to Senator-Elect Brown.

AP just called it for Brown!

Do you suppose Ted is rolling over in his grave right now?

[Bronco]

I bet Ted is looking up tonight and is pissed off

This should be instructive for some people.

America is center-right, anti-big government. You come in and try to swing too far left, and things like this happen. If this particular Senate seat is vulnerable, then they ALL are.

Just think- if McCain had won, he would be dealing with a majority Democrat Congress, and Brown would likely not be winning this race. A Republican President with no power in Congress would have accomplished exactly the same thing as Obama:

Nothing.

I haven't ruled out the possiblilty of him springing out of the grave and retaking his seat as "Ded Kennedy."

I am sure that any number of dead voters in Massachusetts "voted" in this cycle, and not many of them for Scott Brown.

I hope Obama stumps for EVERY Democrat up for re-election in 2010, as he did for Coakley!

Time to dance on Teddy "Murderer" Kennedy's grave! I wonder if he left all of his money to the poor so that they could afford health care...you know, since he cared so much and demanded that everyone else give money to the cause.

It will be interesting to see how the other Democratic blow hards react. Will they attempt to shove health care down our throats...and risk losing their "safe" seats? Hope so...Pelosi and Frank, you're next!

Obama actually plays Ayla and Scott Brown to try and save some face.
