Addendum: Scott Brown now has 9 offices in Massachusetts - Map and Directions here
Scott Brown, Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, was in attendance for the Grand Opening of his Holyoke Campaign Headquarters yesterday. Brown was greeted by an enthusiastic crowd of well-wishers and volunteers – the event was standing room only. In addition to Holyoke, Brown now has offices in Boston, Danvers, Hyannis, Littleton, Needham, Plymouth and Worcester. Brown, a moderate Republican, has three weeks to reach the independent voters, who are key to winning any election in the Commonwealth. There are several televised debates scheduled on Brown’s campaign website:
Martha Coakley’s website does not indicate any additional debates, however, a Boston Globe article from Dec. 24th indicates that she will attend additional debates, with the caveat that Joe Kennedy, the Liberty Party candidate is included. Coakley continues to avoid debating Brown one-on-one, by including Kennedy, some analysts speculated that Coakley’s intent was to highlight the similarities between Kennedy and Brown, however, Kennedy’s taken to attacking Brown at every turn during debates (and easily debunked by Brown), giving rise to speculation that Kennedy (corrected) may be more closely associated with Coakley and his inclusion in the debates are to take the heat off Coakley; although a fiscal conservative, the majority of Kennedy’s policies are more left of center, and aligned with Coakley.
Although this particular Senate Race has not been polled by any known institute since the primary, internal polls place Coakley in a less than desirable position, which is said to be one of the reasons she refused to meet Brown one on one in a debate. The general media consensus is that Ms. Coakley has already won the race, which may prove to be a bit premature.
The Candidates:
Scott Brown for Senate
Martha Coakely for Senate
Current Prediction (No Crystal Ball): Coakley: 41%, Kennedy: 14% Brown: 43%
The 14% to Kennedy is an historically above average percentage, however, one can anticipate that Kennedy will pick up a percentage of votes from Democrats who did not a) watch the debate, and a percentage of independent voters disenfranchised with both major parties. Coakley should pick up the majority of the 36% of registered Democrats (keep in mind light turn-out during special elections). The balance goes to Brown.

Tina, what a great entry with the comparative web sites for each of the two possible winners. I come away from it liking the directness of Brown as well as most of the positions. I read Coakley's issue site and cannot even get through half of them because of her rigid, socialistic positions. Not that she admits it as she uses all the usual platitudes to make sure the weak minded vote for her.
I sure hope he wins, that would send a message to the chicago thugs and their marxist fellow travelers.
I know, I sound extreme, but there comes a day when you have to tell some people who they are because they never admit it.
This election is going to be a lot closer than anyone expects, especially outside of this state. There is strong sense here that this is not a Kennedy seat. People are furious. Most of the independents and quite a few democrats dislike Martha Coakley intensely. Her stand on not debating. Her level of arrogance are all against her. Add in the fact that the state is strongly against Deval Patrick (a big slogan and tax guy) and now the golden platter of Obamacare, she is going under water and does know it. I would love to see the poll numbers on this. I think Scott may have a chance.
"...however, Kennedy’s taken to attacking Brown at every turn during debates (and easily debunked by Brown), giving rise to speculation that Brown may be more closely associated with Coakley and his inclusion in the debates are to take the heat off Coakley..."
I believe there is an error here. It has to be: "... giving rise to speculation that Kennedy may be more closely associated with Coakley.."
If I'm right, please fix this error.
First, BTW, thank you - corrected!! Mea Culpa!! - Ralph, no worries as to Coakley, she has been fairly upfront as to who she is in the debates as well as any of the ads she ran during the Democrat primary - the thing is - she is constantly talking to the base - (see references to George Bush, support for partial birth abortion, support for the Public Option) - Agreed (anonymous) - it is going to be a lot closer - in fact, just ask about anyone in Mass. with a clue (meaning someone who follows news at all) - including democrats, Libertarians - and they are in Scotts corner - the biggest reason - they understand the Health Care vote
Ralph - one thing - don't underestimate the Irish in Massachusetts -
Aside: funny thing: you haven't seen any polls lately (see MSM) touting Coakley's edge - which is highly unusual - one would at the very least anticipate local polls (i.e. Suffolk) - so that edge is either not there at all, or the prevailing attitude that Mass. automatically votes for the Democrat is in place - (I'm going to hazard to guess it is a combination of both).
