MASSACHUSETTS SENATE RACE THE LEXINGTON OF THE CONSERVATIVE REVOLUTION
UPDATE : It has been announced that Obama is now planning to campaign for Coakley on Sunday after Democrats like Barney Frank whined that Scott Browns election would, "kill the health care bill." If Obama's presence works as, "magically," as it did in the New Jersey Governors race, Brown is a shoe in for the Senate seat. Polls released at mid day Friday have him up by as much as six points.
I think it is ironically appropriate that the Conservative Revolution which is taking place in 2010 finds it opening salvo happening in the same state where the American Revolution started, Massachusetts. Our Revolution for Independence found its birth at such Massachusetts landmarks as Boston, Lexington, Concord and Bunker Hill.
Flash forward now to 2010 and the Revolution to take back our country from the Marxist take over that has been forced upon us by Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi finds the first move taking place in the Senate race for the seat vacated by the death of liberal icon Ted Kennedy, a seat that has been held by a Kennedy since JFK won election in 1952 and has been in Democrat control since the mid 1800's.
Scott Brown a Massachusetts State Senator has been running a conservative and masterful campaign against liberal State Attorney General Martha Coakley who only a month ago held a double digit lead in this hotly contested Senate race. At stake is the sixtieth vote for Harry Reid's filibuster proof majority and a referendum on Barack Obama who took Massachusetts by 27 percentage points in 2008.
Polls have Brown leading Coakley by two points going into the last weekend before next Tuesdays election and Democrats are pulling out all the stops to try and hold this seat. Even to the point of running adds which use the memory of Ted Kennedy to play on the emotions of Massachusetts voters. Every Democrat is doing whatever arm twisting that they can with one very telling exception, Barack Obama.
After the embarrassment of losing the New Jersey and Virginia Governors races last November, Obama has distanced himself from this race ignoring a request by Coakley to campaign for her and sending only a brief statement of minimal support for her campaign. Obama acts as if distancing himself from what looks to be a major defeat for Democrats will not make the race a referendum against him.
Yet Brown, if elected would eliminate the sixty vote majority in the Senate which could be the death of the Obama backed health care debacle and Obama knows it. The death of health care because of a Brown election would absolutely be a referendum on Obama especially when it comes from a known liberal State and a seat that only weeks ago was thought to be safely in Democrat hands.
We won our first Revolution because of the actions in standing against the British by the people of Massachusetts and now we can begin the Revolution to take our country back with the defeat of Coakley and the victory for Brown in the same State. Yet even if Brown does not take the seat and only loses by a few points, this too would be a victory because of the iconic symbol of the seat held so long by the Kennedy's. But all indications are showing that this seat will become GOP and Obama will find more egg on his face and a death blow to the center piece of his agenda come Tuesday night.

We can but pray.
It's going to be a nailbiter!
Either way, this race has shown better than any opinion poll how weak the Obama agenda has become.
If a Dem is having trouble in Massachusetts holding on to Ted Kennedy's old Senate seat then they are really in trouble.
