Really hoping we can get a more liberal democrat in there. Nikki Tsongas was never my least favorite MA Dem but I don't find her to be a particularly good congresswoman.

I understand it's Massachusetts, but it's not a D+30 district...

So? It's not like a Republican can win there. What matters is how liberal the Democratic primary voters are.

I think MA-03 still has the potential to elect a Republican. It voted for Scott Brown when he lost statewide in 2012 to Warren; it voted about 52.25% for Charlie Baker in 2014. And Tsongas hardly won the 2007 special election by some landslide -- only about 6.22 points. Maybe a Republican like state Rep. Sheila Harrington could make it a serious contest.
