Why do people just assume Scott Brown would win if Kerry takes a cabinet position.

25. I live in Massachusetts. We have had three tough elections within the last 2 years.

I will list them:
- The 2010 Special election to fill the Kennedy seat. Martha Coakley could have saved us some anguish by running a competent campaign, but she didn't. Right wing zealots and money came from all over the country to support Brown. Brown's best weapon was Coakley, who seemed arrogant about her chances and disinterested in ground level campaigning. We were crushed by losing that race and that lost set the tone for the big year republicans had in 2010.
- Later that year, the 2010 Gubernatorial race. We had to defends an incumbent that came into the race with a 34% approval rating due to the bad national economy, his own policies were good, as time would show. The republican party threw tens of millions and many people into that race, it was a struggle for us.
- The recent election that had Elizabeth Warren unseat Brown, elected a Kennedy to the House and protected the House seat of John Tierney, who was fucking stupid enough to have been married to a woman who was laundering millions of dollars for her criminal brother. Amazingly, Tierney didn't fucking have a clue about what was going on, that was proven in court - but republicans put a good candidate up against him who we had to beat back to keep Massachusetts blue.

We are fucking tired. If we get another special election, I have no idea of what will happen. Yes Scott Brown made an ass of himself in the Warren race, but he has been rehabilitating his image with well reported charity events. In addition, even though he was a ass with Warren, Brown got around 1.2 million votes against probably the most appealing candidate that we could have thrown up against him.
