I think if Brown loses by less than 5 points, that in it’s self, will kill the healthcare bill in Congress. Coakley should win by 20 + points. If you are a Democratic member of the House from a red state, would you vote for the bill, if Brown barely loses. This special election has become a national referrendum on the current Democratic healthcare reform bill.

“Brown himself is crusading on the fact that if he wins and is seated before congressional Democrats reach a compromise on two health-care bills passed by the House and the Senate, his vote will be able to stop it from passing.”

I find it pretty tough to imagine that deep blue massachusetts will elect someone vowing to vote against healthcare reform.

Darn, just when I was starting to like Brown…
Even if mandated health insurance works (which is far from proven) it is antithetical to freedom.
You don’t fix a leaky faucet by forcing everyone in the country to buy a new faucet.
Romneycare is a GREAT example of one of the many flawed aspects of this bill.
