Must be nice to have a REPUBLICAN senator. Hmmph. I wouldn't know... :(
But congrats for you Jay G and your fellow MASSholes!

Instead of, Go Scott! Go! I am changing it to, 'Leave MArtha! Leave!'

OK...here's whats needed...

We need to find out how many absentee ballots were sent out.

Then, the margin of victory tonight, without the absentee ballots.

As long as there is more than 5% delta (meaning that there is no way on Gods Green Earth that Coakley can cheat Brown out of the win) in potential 100% absentee going to Coakley and she still looses, its a slam dunk, and you guy up there can stop whining about never being the center of attention, and you can give other states a shot to steal the spotlight.

Like NY. We need some attention. Schmucky Schumer has had absolutely no face time ever since the Coakley/Brown race tightened up, and he's going through serious withdrawal.

On second thought, Chucky Cheese is going to need some serious psychological help, because Scott Brown is going to be the center of attention for the next few months.

Dayum...you guys in mASS sure know how to put the screws to our senior senator. I would think that you selfish tards would share that knowledge with your next-door neighbor state?

::waits a few more mnutes before removing tongue from cheek:: :-)

Outstanding.

The gnashing, wailing, crying and screaming on Democratic Underground is making me snicker, even now some of them can't comprehend that a Republican won in MA or how Brown won.

Victory!!!

Congrats, Jay!

As Hugh Hewitt says, "If it's not close, they can't cheat".

52/46 is well outside the margin of fraud, now there is no incentive for Galvin to stall while the votes are tampered with.
