New Poll Coming Soon: Could Scott Brown, R, Actually Win In Massachusetts? By: David Freddoso Online Opinion Editor 01/08/10
Public Policy Polling will be releasing numbers this weekend on the Massachusetts Senate special election race. In the meantime, they reveal a few slivers of information that suggest Republican Scott Brown has a fighting chance: At this point a plurality of those planning to turn out oppose the health care bill.
The massive enthusiasm gap we saw in Virginia is playing itself out in Massachusetts as well... Scott Brown's favorables are up around 60%, a product of his having had the airwaves to himself for the last week. By comparison Bob McDonnell's were at 55% right before his election and Chris Christie's were only at 43%. Coakley's campaign or outside groups need to tie Brown's image to national Republicans and knock him down a notch over the final week of the campaign.

I give up, I’m all Browned out for the weekend.

Do people read newspapers any more? I cannot remember the last time I read a paper.
Yes, The dog is Coakley.
Mr. Earl Sholley, who is running against Barney Frank, has suspended his efforts in his election campaign in order to suppport Scott Brown. Earl is a true Conservative.
Please support Earl as we all have supported Scott.

I just got up to Martha Coakley's campaign HQ to help her win Tuesday's crucial special election. I have to tell you -- this isn't like anything Massachusetts has ever seen.
It's happening right after the holidays, so a lot of people haven't even heard about it. Meanwhile, the same guys behind the Swift Boat ads are taking over the airwaves to distort Martha's record, and the same far-right tea-party crowd that's attacking President Obama is funding her opponent.
The stakes in this race are incredibly high. If we don't hold this seat, a right-wing Republican will hold Sen. Ted Kennedy's old seat until at least 2012 -- and we'll lose a crucial vote in the Senate for health reform and the agenda we fought so hard for last year.
That's why we're going all out in Massachusetts with a massive effort to lock up a Democratic victory. But we can only afford to keep this battle up against the far right through Election Day if folks like you chip in.
Please donate $5 or more to help us make Martha Coakley the next senator from Massachusetts.
Democratic ads are highlighting the key differences between Martha, a long-time public servant and one of the nation's best attorneys general, and her extreme Republican opponent who would walk in lockstep with Mitch McConnell and national GOP power brokers.
And our organizers are engaging volunteers by the thousands to make sure Obama voters make it back to the polls.
But we need your help to keep it going. Please donate $5 or more to the Democratic Party to support our work, including our efforts to elect Martha Coakley:
Let's win this,

Intrade now has Brown leading Coakley 53/47.3.
I’m waiting for Coakley to acknowledge names like Carl Yastrzemski, Bob Cousy, Ted Williams, and Tom Brady.
Brown will win if the Democrats have not rigged the election. If it is close, and they will make sure it is, they will dig out enough phantom votes to win, even if they have to go to court. How did that doofus Al Frankin get in? The same way.

I doubt Brown can pull off the win with ACORN, SEIU, and the machine to cause extreme skew from phoney absentee ballots. The Messiah would not go in there if they didn’t know the outcome so as not to be associated with defeat (like Virginia and New Jersey). It will be close, so a prolonged recount will be needed, and the Senate can pass Socialized Medicine in the delay.
By his actions today, Brown has already signalled that he’ll be lawyered-up and ready if they try to pull a “Franken”.
Ted Williams -— Yup, I’m sure he played for the Yankees and flew B-17 in WWII. Right? :>)
With all Haiti all the time the msm propaganda machine will not be able to get the word out.
They don’t necessarily read newspapers but the venom against Brown will be repeated on TV and radio by the whores in the media.
Your statement simply doesn't make any sense.
I think 53-47 is about right but I also believe there’s a 50-50 shot that Brown could blow this open. Coakley is now viewed as the incumbent, and people want to send a message to Washington and Beacon Hill. Taxpayers are livid over taxes, spending, unemployment, and this health care monstrosity.
We can’t afford any Brownouts here.
