IF Brown wins, WHO is Sen. Paul G. Kirk Jr. representing ?

Before the 19th, he was going to vote the same way as Teddy would vote, which was theoretically what the people of MA wanted..

BUT, if the people elect (on the 19th) a new senator that is going to vote against OBamacare.

That would mean the people of MA would NOT want him to vote for yea on Obamacare.

Is he going to go ahead and give up his whole political career and disregard what the people just voted on???

Go against the will of the people??

Doesn't sound like a safe move to make.
