The Romney campaign is very cautiously optimistic. South Boston, the home of the fabled Irish Democrat machine, is just about 50%/50%. Romney has won the blue collar town of Everett, the first time in anyone’s memory that a Republican has done that. He lost Lynn, another blue collar community, by just 1,000, in 1998 Paul Cellucci, who went on to win, lost Lynn by nearly 12,000.
