23. If I were running in MA, I'd run against it. Seems like that
would be the only way to win. This horrible HCR bill is killing Coakley, pure and simple. I live here, I talk to other people who voted for her in the primary. They didn't like Capuano because he was originally for this HCR bill before he was against it. They hate this bill for all different reasons that the republicans do. They hate it non the less! They are pissed at her flip flop and we/MA are probably going to pay the price! Who twisted her arm to flip?????????????? This race is a referendum on this sucky HC bill. Blame those who forced her to flip! She had it right before they got to her. Obama and his bill are toxic in this state. Gawd help us. One little trip to a senior center could tell anyone, who had a desire to hear, they are pissed. Those seniors vote, someone might want to listen to their complaints. Women here are beyond pissed about the abortion clause, they are the ones who work the back end of campaigns and the phones. Social Independents are pissed about all the spending yet not much on social issues, we have a shit load of them here in MA. Almost all Dems and Independents here hate the insurance industry and don't like our president cutting deals with them behind closed doors. Yep, lots of pissed off people in MA who will just stay home.

I personally want this bill dead! That said, I still don't want to see Martha Coakley lose here in MA. I have been trying to get people to see that her loss will not kill the bill. I have been trying to tell them that we here in MA will suffer greatly if the nude center fold wins. They are to pissed at this administration, president and both houses of congress. Pray (or whatever you do) for us we are going to need it here in Massachusetts.
