Polls are in His Favor, But Will Brown Pull It Out in the End? It's Up To You MAGOP

Last night when I went to bed, every poll was in Scott Brown’s favor:

Even bookies were paying up to people who bet on Brown:

“Enough is enough. It seems that Senator Brown just has to get out of bed tomorrow to win convincingly. As far as were concerned, this race is well and truly over,” said Paddy Power, Irelands largest bookmaker.

Before shutting down the betting, Mr. Brown had gone from 5-4 odds to 1-5 (meaning if a bettors put down $5, they only stood to make $1 if Mr. Brown wins). The odds against his opponent — Democrat Martha Coakley, the state’s attorney general — soared, from 4-7 to win to 3-1 to lose.

But polls are one thing and reality is another. Hopefully all the polls are dead on and Brown pulls this one out, but we can’t expect polls to get out and vote. We can’t expect polls to drive voters to the polls. We can’t expect the polls to keep the opposition honest.

The one thing we can out on is a desperate left who will not hesitate to lie, cheat and steal to win an election.

So don’t let the polls lull you into a false sense of security. If you are in Massachusetts, by all means get to the polls and vote. And bring a friend, even if they are one of those friends I talked about yesterday.

Go alone if you have to, but go. And don’t think your vote will just affect Massachusetts. This is nationwide, baby!

An upset like this can shake the liberal sensibilities of moderate, power hungry career politicians to their very core. Make them see the Tea Parties and the Town Hall events were more than just a bunch of kooks.

Make them fear for their jobs. It’s the only thing that will really make them change.

Good luck.

    While I find it encouraging that a Republican may well defeat a Dem in a Dem strong hold…
    The Conservative up-swell behind Brown demonstrates our folly.

    Republicans and Conservatives (not always one in the same) are willing to simply support anyone with an “R” next to their name on the ballot.

    Brown has several issues which should have caused Republicans and Conservatives some kind of pause.
    The most glaring being his stance on health care reform.

    He has made it clear on several cable news interviews that he is anything but opposed to health care reform/nationalized health care. He has made it very clear that he is a big fan of the health care system in Mass.

    This is not change.
    This is more of the very same thinking which put us in our current position politically.

    Again, I agree he is the better option.
    But the blind support he has gotten is discouraging.
    Just my two cents.

    There is no doubt in my mind, here at 430pm eastern time, that Brown will win this race, it is only by how much he will win. I have some sources I use for my book writings and I have been in contact with them today, and they tell me that the leadership in the Democratic party is racing to find out who to blame, and how they will word it TONIGHT. He also tells me that the internal polls from just one day ago were too low, and that they would need “a miracle” to come close with the turnout so high.

    Having said that, I do not think Brown is the best person for the job either, but you take the lesser of two evils when you can get them. Brown has supported Romney Care in the past, and has said it needs to be worked on to make it better. I am not too sure what he means by that, but there are major differences between Obama Care and Romney care respectively. I will not go into that in your blog, but all I can say it is really just rooting for the lesser of two evils. What scares the Democrats the most, from what I can gather, is not that they will lose this seat, but that they will not even be able to delay the inevitable because it will be so lopsided in the end.
