So much for another Republican pickup.
Who said this was going to be a Republican pickup?
A lot blue avatars are screaming "wave" and in a wave, this seat would be in contention.
Massachusetts tipping to the Republicans in a wave year? It's a reliably Democratic state with no Republican representatives or Senators. Who said Massachusetts would be one to tip over in a wave? Nobody. Perhaps it could tip, like any state, wave or no wave, if a terrible candidate like Coakley were the nominee and Republicans nominated a stellar candidate, but Coakley's running for governor, not Senate.
