#3 I wouldn't get my hopes up. Never underestimate the power of the machine.

#4 Boston machine is at least as good as the Chicago, Baltimore and Philadelphia machines ...

#5 I wonder how Ted Kennedy will vote? Along with the rest of the Kennedy clan - John, Bobby, Rose, and the rest.
If it is close - if Brown doesn't win by at least 10%, the Dems will hold it up with recounts, challenges, and found votes just like in Minnesota.

#6 Yeah, Menino's got his machine. But it could only turn out 38% of the electorate for his own election. Capuano took Boston in the primary. Coakley'll take the major cities, but not by as much as she has to, and the Moonbat enclaves (Cambridge, Amherst, etc.) but everything else is up for grabs or leaning Brown. He owns the independents. Right now he's got the momentum and his supporters are highly motivated. They'll show up to vote. I don't think I can say the same for her.
