This was supposed to be an open and shut race but now Obama has to be called in to save the day.
"They believe that by defeating Martha, and replacing Ted Kennedy with her Republican opponent, they'll be in a position to tie up the Senate and prevent a vote on health insurance reform, financial reform and other issues so important to working families in Massachusetts and the nation," Obama said. "The outcome of these fights will probably rest on one vote in the Senate."
That shows how tenuous their advantage is. It sure sounds like a fear-based message as well. If you don't vote for Coakley then the "evil Republicans" will stop all of our failed and yet-to fail reforms. I can understand why Healthcare reform is such a rush job.
