Massachusetts is not a huge democratic state. I live here. There is a very large republican base. The only thing Mass has a lot of is minorities and college students who vote during presidential elections but not during senatorial elections. Add on top of that that nobody liked martha coakley. 

You also have to factor in the very sizable contributions that the blue dogs received from healthcare.

How could the healthcare bill pass if there was such a huge division?

Huh?  MA is a huge Democratic area.  I live in the Live Free or Die state and it's not uncommon for dozens of Massholes to be in NH standing at the polls for Democrats on election days because most of the elections aren't very close in MA.  They also come up here for Democratic political rallies from time to time to make the number of Democrats in NH look larger.
