In Massachusetts, Dems on the Edge of Their Seat

Last Monday, Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) admitted that the health care bill was "hanging on by a thread." Most of us are starting to wonder if that "thread" is Massachusetts. After Sen. Ted Kennedy died, the Massachusetts state legislature, with a solid Democratic majority, moved quickly to give its liberal governor the power to appoint a temporary successor. They knew that President Obama would need the full 60 votes to pass his health care overhaul. To keep the seat squarely in the Left's camp, Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick appointed Paul Kirk as the interim senator with orders to vote for anything President Obama told him to.
With the Massachusetts' special election set for tomorrow, all eyes are on who will win: Democratic candidate Martha Coakley, who will support whatever legislation the caucus does, or Republican Scott Brown, who openly opposes the current health care bills. This race has become a referendum not only on health care but of this administration's far left agenda. Of course, the Democrats' political machine in Washington, D.C. is already talking about how to delay Scott Brown from taking the Senate seat if he prevails--in hopes that temporary Senator Paul Kirk will cast their crucial 60th vote.

Their efforts might be moot as The Weekly Standard's Fred Barnes writes that "based on Massachusetts law, Senate precedent, and the U.S. Constitution, Republican attorneys said Kirk will no longer be a senator after election day (January 19, 2010), period. Brown meets the age, citizenship, and residency requirements in the Constitution to qualify for the Senate. 'Qualification' does not require state "certification," the lawyers said.
