Aren't you (and the press) extrapolating this rather widely?

No, I don't. It is Massachusetts, Myron. Republicans are only about
12% of the electorate. Marcia sic (a typical Kennedy gaff) aka
Martha Coakley was a shoo-in. I believe that this election is finally
telling the Dems in DC that they had better get their act in order or
else many of them will be looking for jobs come next January.

It will be interesting to see what Sec. of State Galvin does with the
results. Niki Znongas was seated in the House three days after she won
her election. Galvin had better do the same with Brown. There is talk
that he will delay Brown's overwhelming win by as much as a month or
two, leaving the Senate with super majority. The people of
Massachusetts are tired of the shenanigans of the Dems. I predict he
will be quickly seated.
