| #8 Jim Geraghty, from his Twitter feed: "After meeting Saturday with George W. Bush on Haiti, Obama goes to Boston Sunday, arguing that Scott Brown is as bad as George W. Bush." |

| #7 I am a long time Mass resident and what I'm seeing is unprecedented. In the past we would go through entire federal election cycles without hearing more than 1 or 2 ads for the Dems. I just drove downtown and in the 10 min. drive I heard at least 6 attack ads against Scott Brown including 1 from the DNSSC 3 different times!! They were all vicious and filled with lies and half truths. One of the good things about politics in MA has always been that the Dems were so overwhelmingly in control you weren't subjected to this constant stream of bile, incredible. |

| #5 It appears he will grace us with his presence... Source: Obama to visit Bay State to help Coakley A year ago, this is the probably the final nail in Brown's coffin. Today? It could be the final nail in hers. |

| #4 I'm seeing reports now that The One is going to parachute in to Boston on Tuesday to campaign. If she ekes out a win, he can take credit; if not, the spin will be that the situation was too far gone, Coakley was a hopeless loser candidate, it's not Obama's fault, et cetera. |

| #3 Well, I got my bi-weekly paycheck today - increase in Fed taxes by 1.45%. Not a lot of $, but most assuredly a "Tax Hike," and I'm anything but "Wealthy." The lies of this administration become increasingly apparent. The question is what, if anything, the voting population will do about it.... |
