Two new polls show Elizabeth Warren leading Senator Scott Brown, one by six points and the other by two points, suggesting a possible bump for the Democratic candidate following the two parties’ conventions.

Massachusetts voters...you really want the lying Fauxahontas in the Senate??

Hell, she gave the ORIGINAL "you didn't build that" speech.

Yup, and Rush used it as a learning tool for his listeners. A two day lesson.

[tsowellfan]

You think the polling numbers are accurate on this or tilted like many of the others have been?

[chris37]

Makes perfect sense.

Communists should lead no matter where they run.

People in the Northeast are extra, extra SMRT.

I saw the internals yesterday on the first poll and they were a joke, looked like they polled the faculty lounge at Harvard. I will see if I can find the internals on the other.

Polling numbers are probably accurate on this. This is after all MA. And a stupid lying arrogant communist/statist represents the attitudes of the majority of the voters there much better than a moderate.

[bunky]

The polls have to be wrong. Independents and Democrats I talk to are supporting Scott Brown not Granny Warren, and they were Coakley supporters before. Thursday is a big night.

[cotton1706]

I’m in MA and I’m not feeling that. I think it’s likely Brown will win by a couple of points.

This poll iss a joke,

Q12 If you are a woman, press 1. If a man, press 2.
Woman 50%
Man...50%
Q13 If you are a Democrat, press 1. If a Republican,
press 2. If you are an independent or identify
with another party, press 3.
Democrat 38%
Republican 17%
Independent/Other 45%

The polls have to lie, otherwise the vote fraud would be far more apparent.

Besides, you can't leave out the 'dead Cherokee' vote.

[ConservativeStatement]

This state elected Deval Patrick....twice. And they are enamored by John Kerry. As Howie Carr states, you still see Kerry/John Edwards stickers on vehicles. The closer to a Kennedy, the better. The only ways Brown wins is if enough people split their choice Obama (D)/Brown (R).

[BillGunn]

The GOP in this state is self destructing. They have disenfranchised the base with their antics at the caucuses, they have leaders that are invested in Agenda 21 causes and they will not adopt the RNC's position on the issue, the state chair has donated to well known progressive dems in national races, NO ONE is campaigning for Romney (his campaign rightfully has ceded the race in this state), you can't even get a yard sign in Western Mass without going to NH and that is hurting every race down ticket.

Brown has been running a "positive" campaign, we know he does dishes and laundry and is pro choice; but we still do not know where he is going to fall on the UN small arms treaty and SALT. Meanwhile Warren is plastering him as one of the 1% club.

[Red Badger]

Brown should Sioux............

[outpostinmass2]

I saw a car the other day with an Obama sticker and a Brown sticker. Strange but true.

[Wyrd bið ful aræd]

I see quite a few Scott Brown AND Romney signs around (even in some sections of Newton), so I was quite suprised by these polls. My gut feeling is that they are propoganda.

Of course, one cannot ever underestimate the native stupidity of Massholes. I'm so thankful I'm not a native to this place.

[Cheerio]

Do you honestly believe these polls are accurately measuring the events that will occur on Nov 6, 2012?

[Red Badger]

We look for new candidate.......

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Outside the cities, Brown has broad support. In our town, it’s 2:1. But he lost Tea Party enthusiasm, and lacks the anti-Obamacare vote that he enjoyed last time.

OTOH, he wins the likeability race by a wide margin.

The lawn sign breakdown in our area looks about the same as it did the last time, although I’ve noticed that Warren signs seem to be mainly on corners, indicating paid-placement.

Overall, I would say that he is in a similar position to the special election two years ago. I see him winning by five.

We're the hakowie!???

EW’s Indian name must be Talking Bull...............

[small farm girl]

Please, Lord, I hope you are right...I am sickened by all the bleeders who hold their hands over their ears and say, “I’m not listening, whatever you say is wrong and everything liawatha says in her ads is right!” AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
I can’t even stand the way she walks!

[Smokin' Joe]

"Little Walking Eagle"

(Too full of it to fly)

[ZULU]

Yes they do.

We need the seat, but Brown has been a disappointment. Losing that seat and not getting a seat in Missouri will give the Obamabastard what he needs if he is re-elected.

[Astronaut]

Princess Liawatha.

One poll is MOE right after Dem convention; the more recent is closer. I’m sure it’s hard to oversample Dems in MA.

[Venturer]

It’s Massachusetts anything is possible when liberals are involved.

The worst thing about this election is that one of them will win.

[llevrok]

Massachusetts - You deserve the government that you elect.

[DBrow]

She sounds like a 1971 SDS rally. But, she’s promised to Get Back The Kennedy Seat, so she’ll get the votes.

[stephenjohnbanker]

” I see quite a few Scott Brown AND Romney signs around (even in some sections of Newton),...”

Newton? My hometown. I’m surprised.

[stephenjohnbanker]

” I’m sure it’s hard to oversample Dems in MA.”

LOL!

[Buckeye McFrog]

I always suspected the state which kept sending Teddy back for 107 terms would vote for Fauxhahontas once she ratcheted up her banker-bashing red meat rhetoric.

[LS]

. . . or Indians.

[stephenjohnbanker]

There is at least one in Harvard Square......with no papers : )

[campaignPete R-CT]

looks about right for massachoosee.

but Scottie Brown will win by about 6% or 180,000 votes.

[blueunicorn6]

Who’s that creeping in the teepee?
Paleface Lizzy! Paleface Lizzy!

Who’s that telling lies in the lodge?
Paleface Lizzy! Paleface Lizzy!

Who’s that trying to wiggle into the wigwam?
Paleface Lizzy! Paleface Lizzy!

Who’s that hiding in the hogan?
Paleface Lizzy! Paleface Lizzy!

[Wyrd bið ful aræd]

Towards the upper falls section.

However, in 2010 Sean Bielat ran against Barney Frank, and I saw more than a few Bielat signs in Newton. And Frank ended winning something like 82% to 18%.

[stephenjohnbanker]

” owever, in 2010 Sean Bielat ran against Barney Frank, and I saw more than a few Bielat signs in Newton. And Frank ended winning something like 82% to 18%. “

It always mortified me that the highly educated, high income people of Newton could be so stupid. I’m glad I left the state right after college.

[tshaun]

I believe Boston.com had Brown 15 down the weekend before the election against Coakley.

[GR_Jr.]

People laugh at me and get mad at me when I say the Democrats are going mow over the Republicans this election. The GOP is a train wreck right now. No unity, no good candidates, no message, no nothing. The Democrats my be awful, but they are aggressive and they are pouring it on while the Republicans are taking the beating and not even trying to fight back.

My feeling is 0bama will win a similar victory as in 2008, the Democrats hold 53-55 seats in the senate and gain 20-30 seats in the house. Not looking good at all folks.
