Scott Brown has surged at just the right time, the latest polling from Massachusetts reveals. Brown was once thought by many pundits as nothing more than a speed bump on the way to the coronation of the "US Senator from Massachusetts, Martha Coakley" for the seat vacated when Edward Kennedy passed away.
However, with only hours left in the race, it is hard to find a Massachusetts senate poll with any good news for Coakley and the headlines are stunning. "New poll: Martha Coakley in freefall," reports Politico. If the numbers they have are even close to being the correct election day numbers, that headline is accurate.
Another headline: "Poll: Scott Brown surges to double-digit lead over Martha Coakley," screams My Fox Boston.

Public Policy Polling had this for Sunday, January 17: "Scott Brown leads Martha Coakley 51-46 in our final Massachusetts Senate poll, an advantage that is within the margin of error for the poll."
InsiderAdvantage CEO Matt Towery conducted a poll for Politico and the results are dramatic. "According to the survey conducted Sunday evening, Brown leads the Democratic attorney general 52 percent to 43 percent," the report states. See the poll and article here.
Will the numbers really be that large? Just last week Suffolk University released a statewide poll on Thursday, Jan. 14, that showed Brown (50 percent) leading Coakley (46 percent) by 4 points and the momentum has been all Brown since that day.

According to an American Research Group survey, 52 percent of likely voters back Brown, a state senator, with 45 percent supporting Coakley,
Get out and vote...and DON’t forget 5 friends...
Bring an umbrella, it might rain Tuesday....
And “Marcia” Coakley isn’t?!
They both are pro-abortion. She’s a bit worse in that she is a proponent of partial-birth abortion, but I was very surprised (disappointed is more like it!) to see Scott Brown is pro-abortion.
“Scott Brown has surged at just the right time”. Why is it that record cold temps come when the secular intellects are predicting global warming or a Republican Candidate in a special election takes the most ‘secure’ democratic senate seat in America? Believers would say that God is in control and that he has a great sense of humor. Non-believers would say that the Obama/Pelosi/Reid team has awoken the sleeping giant of true conservatives and they are just tired of the socialist/progressive agenda being forced upon us..........or it may be some combination......All I can say is Thank you God and thank you conservatives! I am so looking forward to Obama crashing and burning over the next ten months and a great series of celebrations in November 2010!
