Two automated polls -- a controversial methodology -- showed the contest within single digits, and a Boston Globe poll released Sunday showed Coakley and Brown tied among those "extremely interested" in the race.

I think there is much to be said for automated polls. I believe it's entirely possible that in a leftist paradise like MA, people are reluctant to tell a human that they intend to vote for the Republican.

We'll know soon enough whether the Globe's poll was any good.

Maybe, although Rasmussen showed her ahead by 9 on 1/5. But then, this is a special election and voters behave differently.

When do the SEIU and ACORN buses start rolling in?

Or have they started already?

Will the New Black Panthers send some more voluntary poll watchers?

That this is being reported in the Globe and the WaPo makes me wonder if we aren’t being set up. I wonder if this isn’t really just a GOTV ploy by the libs in order to get more Democrats to go to the polls rather than just assume Coakley will win.

If the libs were *really* worried that Coakley would lose, I think they’d bury this poll and run so many hit pieces on Brown it would make your head spin.

The other objective may be that if/when Brown loses, they can then dispirit conservatives further by saying “See? People really do want health care. People really do want sleazy Democrats rather than you guys. You were so stupid to think otherwise. All you Tea Party folks are all noise and no power.”

This is a state that put GOP governors in office until 2006. Whether voters want to be taxed now for health care benefits that don't start until 2014 remains to be seen.

Imagine the TERROR a Republican victory in that highly RAT infested state causes the RATS! It puts the brakes on the Obamanation if we win! Here is how to help: if you don't live in Massachusetts, volunteer for the phone bank. (While you are calling keep track so we can get a poll to see how much the RATS have stolen afterwards). Speaking of stolen, if you live in Massachusetts, or find a committed Brown voter, get them to become an election judge. In Boston they pay 135-185$ and I bet heavy RAT districts have not had a Republican monitor in years and routinely stuff the ballot box.
