to those of you who think the Dems are going to cheat their way out of this, I have one question: Do you think they just decided NOT to try and cheat their way to victory in NJ???

Good and fair question.

The RATs risk assessment of upsetting the angry voters, getting investigated (think ACORN publicity) and being discovered isn't worth the risk for an election of a governor.

The 60 Th vote in the Senate is worth cheating and an investigation. If nothing else, an investigation will delay seating Brown for the crucial HC and 0b0z0's agenda votes.

I put myself in their shoes (stinky! LOL) and I would take the risk on something that valuable, definitely not on Corzine!

Correct me if I’m wrong, but without the 60th vote and 40 votes against cloture, the Demos will not be able to pass anything. So whether they seat Brown or not doesn’t matter.

A very interesting perspective, thanks :)

In my experience though, these are liberals and liberals pull out all the stops all the time. Sometimes, it’s enough to get it done. Others, it isn’t.

If it’s down to a few thousand votes, Brown’s going to lose somehow. There, they will pull out all the stops to cheat their way in. If they are separated by more than one percentage point on election night, they won’t be able to do that.

There will be plenty of fraud going on in the actual voting, so if Brown is up by 1+ percentage points on election night, he’s actually won by quite a bit more. But if they fail to get it close enough on election night to have it end up in court, their goose is cooked. I don’t think the fraud machine in MA is as polished as the one in NJ. I also think that many of the folks who are inclined to ‘bend rules’ to elect Dems are not happy with the Dems and are really unhappy with Coakley.

If Brown is leading with independents the way PPP says he is, and if his approval numbers are right, compared to Coakley’s, I don’t see how he loses on election night. Even in the unfair environment that is caused by Rat voter fraud.
