Steve Kornacki offers some astounding tidbits:

Coakley’s internal poll last night, I’ve been told, showed her barely ahead, 46 to 44 percent. The momentum clearly favors Brown, and one very smart Massachusetts Democrat I know told me this morning that “this may be too far gone to recover.” So I was wrong: Brown may actually win.

Kornacki also writes that “she also, I am told, has been negligent at assembling a field operation.” But absentee-ballot demand is up (probably weather-related), and I had heard that her staff were some of the folks who helped Hillary Clinton win that state’s primary by a wide margin back in 2008.

Also, if I were a Coakley backer trying to stir a sense of motivation/panic, this might be the sort of message I would put out there . . .
