What is sad is that the rest of the country does not seem to, or are more interested by something else (I wonder what).

Sure they've gone Democat in every presidential election since 1932 and Obama hasnt been down by more than +15 in this cycle on even the right-leaning ones but hey, you never know. So keep them coming! More MA please!

I was rolling in my bed for weeks when i found out Obama was only leading by 15 so this is a relief.

But I get your point. Obviously we know it's a pretty Democratic state.

The reason the MA numbers are relevant this year is because of how they reflect on Romney.
