This particular race is a "damned if you, damned if you don't" race.
Personally, if I were a Mass. voter, I'd ignore the line for Senator and move on to the other ballot items.
(Thankfully, I'm not a Mass. voter.)

I would vote for Brown, but realise that in my opinion, the Romney of 2008 was much more conservative than Brown is today, having a platform much more to my liking (without which he would not have gotten my support).
But I still feel that in a year or two we’ll be grousing about “another RINO” in the senate, and wondering how we can get rid of Brown and replace him with someone ‘on our side’.
Such is the nature of politics — but I’d rather be grousing about a guy who is against us some of the time than standing in line waiting for my medical exams and wondering what happened to my country.
I just think it’s funny that Scott Brown, whos is just about everything Romney was back in 2002 except Mormon, gets as much support here as he does, when Romney was castigated for many even for his run for Mass. Governor (I understand the presidential run, because the “Mass. is just so liberal” is hardly an argument for putting a liberal in the white house).
This is a special election to fill the seat of the Swimmer. There are no other ballot lines. You need to keep up on current events.
Agreed. You'd be in the booth looking at the ballot for the special senatorial election, turning the paper over and over and over for five minutes until you started shouting, "Hey, where are the other races?!" Then everyone would point at you and laugh.
You "I won't vote, thus proving I'm the REAL Amerrrrrican!" types are the worst. I wouldn't want a one of you in a foxhole with me during a fight. Then again, you'd see the shovel came from China and would refuse to dig while enemy shells landed all around us.
