Really, an embarrassing victory for Tsongas. Massachusetts is so overwhelmingly democrat. Excellent showing by our side.

Good try for the Republican, but he had little chance in Taxachusetts.

Damn. Well, it wasn’t a loss of a district. God bless the man who ran in a deep blue state against the socialist Democrat party apparatchiks.

And this is news that Mass votes in a Democrat...?

She makes her Daddy look good.
But I’m afraid I expected nothing else. People who would re-elect Teddy Kennedy or Barney Frank are capable of electing just about anything to public office if it has a (D) after its name.

That was an outstanding effort for Ogonowski! I only wish I lived in his district so I could have voted for him.

“But Tsongas’ support in Lowell and Lawrence was enough to earn her the seat.”
Hmmm, could promising freebies have anything to do with it?

I love how the Globe omits any mention of Jim’s 28-year service to the Air Force.

This is NOT a sign of Republicans bouncing back. This was a special and specials are odd creatures. If there is a rerun in Nov. 08, the rat will win by the usual Massachusetts 70/30. The rat voters stayed home because they KNEW who would win. The Americans turned out, but as you see the numbers just weren’t there. There may be so residual benefits for local Americans in terms of organization and new blood, but that’s about it.

46 percent in MA? Not too shabby.

I truly don’t see how Jim could of possibly won this race. Massachusetts has been like its own socialistic country for several decades now and counting. It’s amazing that there have been any Republican Governors in Massachusetts at all, even if they are not fully conservative. The majority of Massachusetts voters have been brought up to never vote for any Republicans for any reasons whatsoever, and this mindset is still very dominant throughout Massachusetts.
