The Obumbler sneeringly said “Anyone can drive a truck.” Brown made campaign ads driving his 200,000 mile truck all over the state stumping for votes.

We’ve been online at HA for almost four years, yet in all that time we’ve never had a moment like this one. Our debut was in April 2006, six months before the Dems’ takeover, and it’s been all downhill since then. I honestly don’t remember what it’s like to blog really big, really good political news. The closest we got was the killing of the amnesty bill two years ago, but even that zombie may be resurrected to haunt us again this summer. A naturally pessimistic mind weaned on a steady diet of gloomy news simply isn’t built to handle stuff like this.

Rasmussen says he’s been scrambling to put together an exit poll; the data should be out shortly after the polls close at eight. The tears in leftist heaven have been flowing steadily for days and mordant Democratic souvenirs of Coakley’s ineptitude are already on sale. Even the bookies have already started paying out on Scotty B. Bad, bad karma. Live results should be available at the Globe’s site — we already know what they’re hoping for — but I’ll update if I find any better ones.

The moment is at hand. It’s prediction time. I can only be what I am, my friends, and that is an eeyore: Coakley 50, Brown 48. Heart-ache. Exit question: Will tonight see a humpbot cameo or the dreaded melting bunny?

Yes, I thought so too. Frank Luntz can’t get Croakley people and he pays them!!!

Keep your eyes pealed to Gardner, Fitchburg and Peabody. If Brown puts up a health lead there, he's won.

I have a pickup truck, and Barak Obama is an a-hole if he doesn’t like it.

I’m actually watching Overbite just to see him lose his mind.
