Polls swing Brown's way

Widening his lead. Eagles and prayers up!

BOSTON -- Underdog Scott Brown widened his lead yesterday over Democrat Martha Coakley in the battle today for Ted Kennedy's Massachusetts Senate seat, according to a slew of last-minute polls -- one of which showed the Republican lawmaker jumping out to double-digit leads in key areas.

In a true "blue" state where Democrats outnumber Republicans 3 to 1, an upset victory by Brown would be a stunning rebuke to President Obama and his policies, pundits say.
