They’re making health-care contingency plans in case Scott Brown wins:

The notion of a Republican winning Ted Kennedy’s seat remains, despite (or perhaps because of) the recent hubbub around the race, unlikely.
But it’s a real enough possibility that Democrats have started to consider the question. There are, it appears, two ways health care reform could still pass, in theory, after a Brown victory in Massachusetts a week from Tuesday.
The first is simple, if controversial: Get it through between the time the polls close and the new Senator is sworn in.
Senator Paul Kirk, currently in the seat, told reporters today he would vote for a health care bill even if Massachusetts voters elect Brown.
“Absolutely,” Kirk said, according to the State House News Service, when asked if he’d vote for the bill, even if Brown captures the seat. “It would be my responsibility as United States senator, representing the people and understanding Senator Kennedy’s agenda and the rest of it.”
