In the bluest of blue states, we've got a senatorial race of grand proportions. As you may know, Ted Kennedy passed away not long ago, and we now have a special election next Tuesday to decide his successor. In what should have been a complete and utter shoe-in for the democrat candidate, the moderate, fiscal conservative Republican, Scott Brown, has an actual shot at the office. Rasmussen and PPP have called this a dead heat. I'm a small "L" libertarian, but baby steps...
Scott Brown could be the 41st vote on health care, but more importantly, cap and trade, etc.
I couldn't be happier. And I'll be working the phones this weekend. Go Scott! :BLAA:
btw, favorite part of last night's debate:
Gergen lofted softball questions to Martha Coakley, but when he tried to trip up Brown, he ended up with egg on his face.
"Are you willing to say 'I'm gonna be the person, I'm going to sit in Teddy Kennedy's seat, and I'm going to be the person who's going to block it [health care] for another 15 years?'" asked Gergen.
Brown responded,
"With all do respect it's not the Kennedy's seat, it's not the Democrats seat, it's the peoples seat."
