massachussets senate: with high turnout, brown in danger

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Massachusetts is so heavily Dem that the legislative GOP caucus is a complete joke of virtually no relevance. So anyone seriously into politics has to be a Democrat to make a difference. This means you have tons of conservatives registering as Democrats to vote in the only election that matters (the Democratic primary) and sometimes nominating fairly conservative candidates. So it has a much larger proportion of conservadems than more conservative states, certainly more than places like Michigan.

However I highly doubt it has more than Arkansas.

Brown will win the primary. However let's see how strong he is in the general after two years of the House GOP leadership acting like how Gingrich and co did in 1995, with in a presidential year. I mean how is Brown going to run in an Obama vs. Palin race? Even endorsing Obama isn't going to do him much good in that type of race.
