It's still hard to believe a Republican could win in deep-blue Massachusetts, but if you're interested in healthcare reform you must pay attention to the election that will take place on January 19th.

A new poll from PPP has GOP candidate Scott Brown leading Democrat Martha Coakley by 1 point.

How could a Republican win in a state that Obama carried by more than 20 points?

It's simple. Republicans are motivated by the chance to pull a gigantic upset and torpedo healthcare reform. Democrats aren't so motivated, so the conventional wisdom is that the makeup of the electorate will be way different than it was last election day .

According to wiki, PPP is Dem Party affiliated. "Public Policy Polling (PPP) is an American, Democratic Party-affiliated polling firm based in Raleigh, North Carolina. PPP was founded in 2001 by businessman and Democratic pollster Dean Debnam, the firm's current president and chief executive officer."

So the Dem Party leadership is probably trying to scare Dembots in MA to make sure they get off their butts and go out to vote on January 19.

FYI, Rassumssen has the Dem senate candidate, Martha Coakley, leading by a very comfortable margin. Rasmussen's poll results were released 5 days ago.

...A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of likely voters in the state finds Coakley ahead of Brown 50% to 41%. One percent (1%) prefer some other candidate, and seven percent (7%) are undecided.

Good news for the GOP, bad news for everyone else.

If National Romneycare is torpedoed, everyone wins.

Somewhere, Jimmy Carter is laughing and saying, "Finally! I won't be the worst President ever!"

Obamacare is dead if he wins and the Dems can't get a vote before the 19th. That explains why Obama wants to kill the Houae Senate conference and go straight to a vote on a bill that will be written by another anonymous lobbyist from the insurance industry.

Translation: The Banksters have decided to take Hellthcare Deform off the table as it was getting too embarrassing and causing too many people to try and peek behind the curtain.

Too late.

By putting the R's back in charge they can have them take the hit for killing socialism in our time while the golden Boy skates and is useful for other things like pumping up the coffers of the M.I.C. and more "bail-out" loot.

And the R's have gone into a "Stall" Defense to run out the clock. By using parliamentary maneuvers they can make it go through at least 3 more cloture votes before it even goes to conference. I have my fingers crossed but I think Obamacare is dead.

If Brown Wins in Mass. Dems Will Delay Swearing in till AFTER Obamacare Vote

The democrats will do anything to get Obamacare passed even over the objections of the American People. The question is how far over the Objections of the American People will they go. According to the Boston Herald they are willing to go very far. In the unlikely event that Republican Scott Brown wins the special election to take over Ted Kennedy's senatorial seat, the democratic leadership would delay his swearing in to after the obamacare vote, preventing him from casting the 41st vote against Cloture and killing Obamacare.

January 9, 2009 Boston Herald Frank Quaratiello Scott Brown Swearing-In Would be Stalled to Pass Health-Care Reform

It looks like the fix is in on national health-care reform - and it all may unfold on Beacon Hill.

At a business forum in Boston today, interim Sen. Paul Kirk predicted that Congress would pass a health-care reform bill this month.

“We want to get this resolved before President Obama’s State of the Union address in early to mid-February,” Kirk told reporters at a Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce breakfast.

The longtime aide and confidant of the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who was handpicked by Gov. Deval Patrick after a controversial legal change to hold Kennedy’s seat, vowed to vote for the bill even if Republican state Sen. Scott Brown, who opposes the health-care reform legislation, prevails in a Jan. 19 special election.

“Absolutely,” Kirk said, when asked if he’d vote for the bill, even if Brown captures the seat. “It would be my responsibility as United States senator, representing the people and understanding Senator Kennedy’s agenda. . . . I think you’re asking me a hypothetical question but I’d be pleased to vote for the bill.”

Few have considered the Jan. 19 election as key to the fate of national health- care reform because both Kirk and front-runner state Attorney General Martha Coakley, the Democratic nominee, have vowed to uphold Kennedy’s legacy and support health-care reform.

But if Brown wins, the entire national health-care reform debate may hinge on when he takes over as senator. Brown has vowed to be the crucial 41st vote in the Senate that would block the bill.

The U.S. Senate ultimately will schedule the swearing-in of Kirk’s successor, but not until the state certifies the election.

Today, a spokesman for Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, who is overseeing the election but did not respond to a call seeking comment, said certification of the Jan. 19 election by the Governor’s Council would take a while.

“Because it’s a federal election,” spokesman Brian McNiff said. “We’d have to wait 10 days for absentee and military ballots to come in.”

Another source told the Herald that Galvin’s office has said the election won’t be certified until Feb. 20 - well after the president’s address.

Since the U.S. Senate doesn’t meet again in formal session until Jan. 20, Bay State voters will have made their decision before a vote on health-care reform could be held. But Kirk and Galvin’s office said today a victorious Brown would be left in limbo.

In contrast, Rep. Niki Tsongas (D-Lowell) was sworn in at the U.S. House of Representatives on Oct. 18, 2007, just two days after winning a special election to replace Martin Meehan. In that case, Tsongas made it to Capitol Hill in time to override a presidential veto of the expansion of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program.

Yesterday, Brown, who has been closing the gap with Coakley in polls and fund raising, blasted the political double standard.

“This is a stunning admission by Paul Kirk and the Beacon Hill political machine,” said Brown in a statement. “Paul Kirk appears to be suggesting that he, Deval Patrick, and (Senate Majority Leader) Harry Reid intend to stall the election certification until the health care bill is rammed through Congress, even if that means defying the will of the people of Massachusetts. As we’ve already seen from the backroom deals and kickbacks cut by the Democrats in Washington, they intend to do anything and everything to pass their controversial health care plan. But threatening to ignore the results of a free election and steal this Senate vote from the people of Massachusetts takes their schemes to a whole new level. Martha Coakley should immediately disavow this threat from one of her campaign’s leading supporters.”

A spokeswoman for Coakley’s campaign declined to comment today.

Let them pass this canned ham. It's a good thing.

There is a resevoir of rage out there that is just waiting to be undammed. I think you'll see the court dockets clogged with litigation by lots of interests with clout. You'll soon see real resistance and civil disobedience precipitate around the demands and restrictions that this bill places upon citizens.

The real fight is about to begin.

Just wait until the taxpayers and citizens open that can and the maggots come crawling out.

I don't think you'll be able to keep them down on the farm.
