It is a referendum on Obama if Mass. voters know electing Brown would mean Obama's HCR is nixed

[brentspeak]

Or rather, it's a referendum on Obama's HCR agenda.

Mass. voters know perfectly well how important this special election is to the HCR vote. That doesn't mean, of course, Coakley isn't also a poor candidate, but let's get real here.

1. Of Course, every special election is referendum on Obama

Unless of course the Democrat wins
