Whoever wins will be my senator

I'm expecting that a renewed sense of urgency among Massachusetts Democrats and independents will lead to the election of Martha Coakley to complete Ted Kennedy's term.
I also know that, as a citizen of this town, commonwealth, and nation, I have made a commitment to share in this glorious experiment with all, be they pointy-headed liberals, three-alarm wingnuts, and those in between.

That means abiding by the outcome and continuing to fight the good fight.

All elections are this important. We often just don't notice it.
