Sure, they are wary of again another election, and I think we all are, whether we have expressed support for this nomination or not, but the general feeling is that it is good.

A recent poll was showing Kerry's popularity in MA above 60% and nearly 60% of people supporting the nomination (There are not 60% of people in MA who are Republicans, so this is not about Brown having a chance to get a seat).
