I may be going out on a limb here, but I think that if the Republican were to win this race or even lose by just a small margin it will send shock waves through the democrat party. A win would demonstrate that not even democrats in hardcore, liberal states and districts are going to be safe in 2010. You would then see democrats breaking with Pelosi, Reid and Obama in droves on health care and Cap n’ Tax to try to save their own rear ends in 2010

Every liberal I ever knew hated Ted Kennedy. I lived in northern New Jersey, New York, and Massachusetts. They viewed him as a bloated liar and probable murderer who was exploiting the deaths of his brothers.

They also knew that Kennedy was a pro at patronage and pork and they knew that the seat was his until he chose to leave it. There is a realistic chance the dems could lose that seat. If so, it would go to someone who campaigns like a RINO, but that person better bring money into eastern Massachusetts.
