Tomorrow voters in Massachusetts will decide who will succeed the late
Democratic Senator Ted Kennedy. Early on in the race, Democratic State Attorney
General Martha Coakley was considered a shoo-in for the seat, but Republican
State Senator Scott Brown -- a relative unknown six months ago -- has surged to
a lead in some polls.
"There's a lot of anger even here in Massachusetts at the whole Obama
agenda -- particularly the healthcare situation," he
points out. "A majority of
people in the state don't like it; and even a majority of the people in the
state don't like Obama anymore, even though he won here by 16 points last
November."
(Obama and his backers need to get out of the bed and small what the voters are thinking and trying to say.)
