"It's The People's Seat."

Scott Brown is the Republican candidate running for the senate to fill the vacancy created upon Ted Kennedy's passing. He is running against the Democratic state attorney general for this seat in what is arguably the bluest of all states in the nation.

And do you know what?!? Polls show he has a real chance of winning! If he were to win or even pull off a narrow defeat, certainly THAT should terrify the Democrats in the coming November elections when they cannot even hold what they deem is "Ted Kennedy's seat" in the state of Massachusetts.

Regardless of the outcome next Tuesday, I really like what I have heard thus far from Mr. Brown. He does indeed get it that We The People are his boss, should he pull the upset win.

If Coakley loses, it will be seen as an upset, for sure. But I wouldn't count this seat in the GOP column just yet. And as for the seat being referred to as "Kennedy's seat," when one hold the same seat for nearly 50 years, I think it is okay. I seem to remember many on the conservative side referring to Strom Thurmond's long held seat as "Thurmond's." Didn't remember any libs getting their panties in a bunch over it.
