    Thanks for the link, liz. I especially liked this -

    Even if Martha Coakley, their cause célèbre, pulls through this race, she will enter the Senate in a vastly weakened position, perceived as a frontrunner who blew her lead and mangled her campaign. What’s more, Coakley’s lack of fight raises questions about her ability to effectively advocate for women’s issues as a legislator in a deeply divided Congress.

    A testament to modern marketing.

    My IP address shows a NY address, but I have various email accounts showing other addresses.

    When I log into a defense/strategy discussion forum or check out drudge, I get ads for Sen. Brown.

    When go to CNN, I get A.G. Coakley ads.

    For some reason, though I'm a registered third party voter, the NY State DNC sends me messages personally through one of my spam trap email addresses.

    I'd hate to see their marketing budgets, but I could probably live quite comfortably on a small % of what they're spending.

    Today we had 5 phone calls reminding us to vote for Brown / Coakley.

    This is a land line, with a 401 area code. We are in RI the election is in Mass.

    What a waste of funds!!!

    You just got 5, consider yourself lucky! I have lost track of how many calls have come in today, we just let the machine get it then delete it as soon as we hear who it is.

    I am so looking forward to Wednesday! At least then when the phone rings maybe it'll be an actual human being on the other end!

    This is my view of this election.


    I care about it so much that I start to wonder how much sleep either candidate gets tonight. I could not imagine doing anything and having so much pressure put on you.

    LOL, how many verses/drafts of their 'winning' speech have been written so far.

    I laughed this morning because there was a camera crew in a MA town called Newton. The network had sent a TV crew out to get some voter shots?

    It looked like a gym-they had some voting machines set up and I looked to see it there was anyone I knew out there....
