No “non-Democrat†will win this seat, and no conservative will win this seat. Massachusetts really is a one-party, pro-leftist state, and the majority of voters really are lifetime leftists. It’s a waste of, both, time and money for any R as well as for any “non-leftist†to run for anything in Massachusetts. Even if Scott Brown is really using this race in order to help create some name recognition for himself for any possible future runs for Massachusetts political office, he will only end up losing badly anyways every time! Massachusetts is always a lost cause for all non-Democrats and, even more, for all non-leftists. Even when there is a R Governor (all RINOs btw), the state legislature still maintains all of the ongoing political clout!
The words in my above post are non-Democrat and non-leftist.
Normally I would agree with you but I heard Brad Jones, the minority leader for the MA House on the radio this AM. He said local elections this week for Mayors across the state showed that many incumbents came in second or third in their races. That gives me some hope that maybe some changes are coming. Will that translate as a victory for Brown? Probably not, but some turnover is on the way.
