Cook Report Moves Massachusetts Senate Race from "Solid Democratic" to "Leans Democratic"

In the words of Steve Perry, Don't Stop Believin'.

At this point, we suspect that the race has indeed closed somewhat and that the result will probably be closer than it ought to be, but we continue to believe that [Republican Scott] Brown has a very uphill struggle in his quest to pull off a Massachusetts Miracle. At the same time, we have a well-earned appreciation for how unpredictable special elections can be even in states or congressional districts that sit solidly in one party’s camp or the other. For that reason, and an abundance of caution, we are moving it from the Solid Democratic column to the Lean Democratic column.

Via Instapundit, who links Brown's new ad-- a change ad.

Incidentally, several of his commercials feature his daughters, who are pretty cute.

My old friend Boston Irish tells me his brunette daughter, Ayla Brown, was a contestant on American Idol and just barely missed making the cutoff for the top ten (or twelve, or whatever) finalists who would compete week-by-week on the show.

Apparently she's a pro or semi-pro singer. You can listen to her cuts on the side of that page.
