I’m getting all kinds of e-mails from people freaking out because Coakley just had a surge. I don’t know what to tell you other than: If you’re in Massachusetts, vote. (But I don’t think I have to encourage anyone reading this who lives in the Bay State to!) If you have friends in Massachusetts, get them to vote Brown. It’s like hitting the reboot button on health care.

UPDATE: Corner readers always know; a reader e-mails: “K-Lo, That is Brown holders taking their profits, so they are selling. That would explain the fall in prices, but it is not that large.”
