The race to fill Ted Kennedy's Senate seat is very close in Massachusetts. Political wire says the poll average is a dead heat and Nate Silver says the race is a tossup. Now the New Jersey Democratic State Committee is blasting supporters soliciting assistance to make a difference in Massachusetts:

You can call voters in Massachusetts and help Martha Coakley continue Senator Ted Kennedy's remarkable legacy.
As Massachusetts' first woman senator, Martha Coakley will help advance Kennedy's legacy - fighting for equal rights, a strong economy, and our families and communities. Without her vote, health care won't happen.

They're using mybarackobama.com for people to call and remind voters to get out and vote on Tuesday. Democrats never expected this race to be a contest and now they're doing everything they can to hold onto the seat in this special election. Bill Clinton was there campaigning for Coakley on Saturday and President Obama was there this afternoon. This will be viewed in the context of Bob Menendez and the DSCC as well, so no doubt he wants all the help they can get at this point. I'll put the full email from Chairman Cryan below the fold.
