Scott Brown leads Martha Coakley 51-46 in our final Massachusetts Senate poll, an advantage that is within the margin of error for the pollThe special election this Tuesday that will determine the winner of the Massachusetts senate seat is considered a referendum on Obama. And his socialist agenda. For a GOP challenger to win in bright blue Massachusetts, while at the same time taking away a seat the Kennedy's have long considered their own, has drastic implications for other democrats who hope to keep their seats while still voting in lockstep with Obama. The Democrats are panicked. Multiple advisers to Obama have privately told party officials that they believe Democrat Coakley is going to lose Tuesday’s special election. So Democrats are starting to lay the foundation for their totally unanticipated loss of what they once considered their safest, most secure Senate seat.
"If you think there's magic out there and things can be turned around overnight, then you would vote for someone who could promise you that, like Scott Brown," Kennedy said. "If you don't, if you know that it takes eight years for George Bush and his cronies to put our country into this hole … then you know we have a lot of digging to do, but some work needs to be done and this president's in the process of doing it and we need to get Marcia Coakley to help him to do that."That's right. It's all Bush's fault. Obama and crew have managed to redefine yet another verity – under Obama's leadership, The Buck Stops With Bush. I'm smiling.
