A million polls out today, and virtually everything is going his way. I’m too lazy to link it all; your best one-stop shop for current news is, as always, Hot Air.
I’m opening up a thread here for people to discuss the race. What else is there to talk about?
UPDATE: I’m considering doing a live chat here tonight. May start it up around 8 p.m. If you’re interested, check back around then.

Just terrified something nutty (pun intended) happens, and the combination of dead Bay Staters and SEIU thugs plus a compassionate judge or two in Mass., screws this up.
Come on Red Sox Nation….Do the right thing.
the bhead (a31060) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:16 pmYes, something nutty could happen and screw this up. Hopefully, there will be a whole lot of honest observers involved tomorrow.
Massachusetts had 116,483 dead people on its voter registration rolls and another 538,567 people who were no longer living at the addresses on their registrations, according to a study released by Aristotle International Inc., a nonpartisan political technology and data firm.
Dana (f64b7d) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:22 pmHes not going to win. The Dems will fucking cheat like they have never cheated before. They will do everything they can to cheat and more to win.
Brown loses or ties in a to close to call race and the recount surges daily for Coackley.
Dopey (a812c5) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:24 pmHas Barcky or Coakley jammed a foot in their mouths today?
This is most certainly not a referendum on Barcky, and means nothing beyond the borders of the Ommonwealth. All it really shows is that teabaggers are sexist racist homophoboic haters.
That is all.
JD (5b977c) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:24 pmAndrew Breitbart was openly taunting ACORN & SEIU on Twitter yesterday, so I hope he has his *troops* on the ground in MA to battle the *nuts*. And, Patterico, Allah needs to eat a bowl of STFU and stop the Debbie Downer impersonation, IMO.
sybilll (a271df) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:29 pmI think Brown wins going away or doesnt win at all. There is no way he wins a close race….they will be finding votes for Coakley for a week if its too close to call when we go to bed tomorrow. The only way Brown wins is if its decisive. Lets hope all the energy and excitement around Scott Brown adds up to a big, big win.
Vote for Scott Brown and bring a friend or 10, my Massachusett friends. We are counting on you to stop this out of control Congress.
AJ (20f5fb) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:31 pmAllah calls ’em like he sees ’em. I like that in a blogger. It’s not his job to be a cheerleader. It’s his job to be honest.
Patterico (c218bd) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:39 pmI vote for a Live Chat.
DRJ (84a0c3) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:41 pmMaybe a little after 8.
Patterico (c218bd) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:42 pmSo long as there are not any hidden bible references. Don’t want the moderate Muslims to get mad at us.
JD (0f29d4) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:50 pmI still say that Brown is as good a candidate as Republicans have seen since Reagan. He’s had a call out for legal help for a week and I think the Democrats will have trouble stealing this, if for no other reason than I think a lot of union folks are with Brown here. The truck has been as good a symbol as I’ve seen in a while. I don’t know how many recall that Fred Thompson had a consultant tell him to ditch the tie and drive a truck in Tennessee and that turned his Senate race around. Brown did it on his own although he has had a lot of help from Romney. This is a Romney win, too.
Ayla Brown must really be tall as she is almost a head taller than her father.
MIke K (2cf494) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:53 pmYes! Live Chat!!
Brother Bradley J. Fikes, C.O.R. (9eb641) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:55 pmI thought this what Allah said was at best lazy…
I just don’t know these people who would be crushed by a narrow loss.
Stupid people, maybe.
happyfeet (e9e587) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:55 pmYeah, JD. I still think they would be OK on a bullet.
MIke K (2cf494) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:55 pmhe said that here

happyfeet (e9e587) — 1/18/2010 @ 7:58 pmWhat did that say? Why are you trying to offend the Arab street, Brother Bradley? 😉
JD (0f29d4) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:01 pmShe is not as tall on the family New Years video so maybe it was an optical illusion.
MIke K (2cf494) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:02 pmJD,

Not Arabic. Not Yiddish.
Yes, you are a witch. Evil, I tell you. That damn song is one of those earworms, and I will not shake it all night. Thanks.
JD (0f29d4) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:09 pmOK, live chat is, well, live.
Patterico (c218bd) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:12 pmI read something interesting today–another reason MA is angry about Obamacare and why the prez never mentioned it. They have universal health insurance now, so they would end up paying for everyone else’s, and even more for states like Nebraska that got a special bribe incentive.
Reminds me of Airplane: “I picked the wrong day to run on Obamacare.”
Patricia (b05e7f) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:12 pmThis is something that makes more sense upside down:

A little risque for my tastes–but wow! I guess limericks really are an art form.
oneisnotprime (e25cc0) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:14 pmBetter Half just came in and wanted to know why I was in some bizarre yoga position trying to read the computer monitor. I had no good answer.

Or go directly to the post for the chat, here.
Patterico (c218bd) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:16 pmSorry I got pissy about Allah. Watched a great video of 20 somethings that drove across country to pound the pavement for Brown, then read Allah’s Tweet that essentially said we should prepare for the letdown. I don’t generally sit around the night before a big game and contemplate the many ways in which we can lose, I instead relish the pre-celebration. Then, if the loss happens, all of us commiserate together. But, I get what you are saying.
sybilll (a271df) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:17 pmBrother Bradley-
quite impressive, I wonder how you did it.
Next thing we know, nk is going to write in greek from upside down, mirror image, with an alphabet that is displaced two letters…
By the way, what was on that Beatles album when you played it backwards?
If there is disappointment for Conservatives after this election, it will be over not being able to stop the theft of an election…yet again.
MD in Philly (d4668b) — 1/18/2010 @ 8:38 pmI want Scott Brown to go to DC later this week in his truck, or on a train, with stops along the way so that we “foreigners” he in the Northeast can thank him (and perhaps help him not get shoved back in DC)!
ParisParamus (0134e9) — 1/18/2010 @ 10:11 pmWould love to know how the heckler got into the Obamao event on Sunday–I suspect it was an inside job 😉
ParisParamus (0134e9) — 1/18/2010 @ 10:22 pmYeah, if it’s decisive, then they can’t cheat.
But the odds are, if they cheat, they’ll be caught. Especially since the Democrats seem to have forgotten about the need to be discreet.
Contemplate the consequences of Democrats stealing this election, and being caught at it. They could lose the working class for a generation or more.
LarryD (feb78b) — 1/19/2010 @ 7:00 am27, JD, tell the wife you were trying to understand untranslated liberal Democrat.
PCD (1d8b6d) — 1/19/2010 @ 8:19 ampatricia hit the nail on the head.
We have a version of “public health care”. We were told that those in the working class would not be affected. Now they’ve raised the sales tax in the state by 1.25% and by the way also the gas tax and by the way countless others.
Tired of it. Tired of it. Tired of it.
Obamacare will be no different. So if they raise taxes and the U.S. does get it’s Obamacare and Mass doesn’t need MASS Health any more, do you think we’ll get our money back? NO.
This smacks of Social Security. And we all know the success of THAT program.
Brown is the perfect message…
