Wow. MA results are shocking.

60% Obama, 38% Romney with something like 86% reporting.

How bad is it that a state that Romney was governor of, and the state where he's spent election night, has rejected him this badly? Incredible.

He wouldn't have gotten a 2nd term in MA. That's why he bailed.

If anything MA hated him more than the average R this election.
