Well, the people of Massachusetts have spoken. And the election of Sen.-elect Scott Brown (R) has sparked the fuse that will spark the second American Revolution. The fact that the people have taken the seat, occupied by both John and Ted Kennedy for over half a century, and entrusted it to Republican hands is proof that the people are fed up with this deceptive, irresponsible, over spending government and want a revolution. This revolution will not necessarily be fought with arms, but with the rights that our Founding Fathers, the original revolutionaries of our beloved Nation, and with those rights, we will fight the tyranny of big government and give it back to the people. The voices of the state where the first revolution was born has been hear loud and clear. Let's join them in their angry song! JOIN OR DIE!
Less than five hours from now, the polls in Massachusetts will open and the voters of the Bay State will get to choose if Republican Scott Brown or Democrat Martha Coakley, or maybe Chris Daggett...I mean, um, Joe Kennedy will get the chance to succeed both the late Ted Kennedy and Paul Kirk in the United States Senate.
The fact that President Obama had to come up to campaign for Coakley (two words: "JON" and "CORZINE") because he knows that his beloved health scare is in danger if Scott Brown gets elected to the Senate. But I have a feeling that Obamacare will be to Coakley as the stimulus was to Corzine. Let's hope that Massachusetts will follow the same path that New Jersey did and prove that just because a state's icy blue, that doesn't mean that it can't be RED HOT!
So one of the things that makes a New England politician successful, more than that "D" at the end of their name and a liberal track record, is a love of the Boston Red Sox. That is a very unique trait of politicians from the late-Sen. Ted Kennedy and Sen. John Kerry to Boston Mayor Tom Menino, all Ds and all die-hard Red Sox fans. Needless to say that the voters that hail from Red Sox Nation want their representatives on the federal, state, and local level to represent them from their views, their needs, and yes, their baseball.
So I'm sure that Red Sox fans across the United States loved hearing vaporizing Democrat candidate Martha Coakley call Phillies and Red Sox pitching great Curt Schilling (note the stronger emphasis on Phillies) "another YANKEES fan" (and Red Sox Nation shreaks in terror). Yes, you read that right, Bosox fans, the person that wants to represent you in the U.S. Senate, who wants the seat of one of the biggest Red Sox fans to set foot in Congress, called the bloody sock pitcher on "Nightside with Dan Rea" a "YANKEES fan"!
This is absolute heresy in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and it will be interesting to see, as a conservative Yankee hater, how this statement will work on behalf of Red Sox fan Scott Brown on Tuesday.
Note the change of tone in Dan Rea's voice after the infamous claim:
He was supposed to be Martha Coakley's sacrificial lamb, the one who the Massachusetts Republican Party would send to the lion's den to get devoured so they can move on. But Scott Brown is not giving up a fight, which is why I hope Brown, a 50-year old Massachusetts state senator, is only down by a mere TWO points according to the latest Rasmussen poll in the special election for the late Ted Kennedy's seat.
It makes you wonder how could the liberal Bay State's electorate could possibly be this close to electing a moderate-conservative Republican to represent them in the U.S. Senate? If elected, Brown would be the first Republican to represent Massachusetts since liberal Edward Brooke. But why? How can a Republican be this close to pick up, not just any seat, but Ted Kennedy's seat? Surprisingly enough, it's the health care debate. Apparently, even the libs in Massachusetts know when enough is enough and that this bill is more of a farce on Ted Kennedy.
The best thing about the whole thing is the way the Democrat Coakley campaign is reacting. Amidst the panic, the Coakley campaign hired the DNC's rapid response team's Hari Sevugan to try to manipulate voter responses towards the MA Attorney General. Instead, it has led to the revelation of the brilliancy of the Democrat Party. As Sevugan, a media insider, was harassing the Brown campaign to see if they would seek Sarah Palin's endorsement as a way to prove his theory that Brown was taking money from "the most radical elements of the national Republican Party".
Unfortunately for Sevugan, he was so busy bullying the Brown campaign that he didn't get the memo that Palin just got hired by Fox News to be an analyst. (Aren't you just wild about Hari?)
We are one week away from the special Massachusetts and nothing would shake up the world of American politics and the Obama administration than the election of a Republican to the U.S. Senate from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Voter turnout is expected to be low and Republicans are energized while Democrats are complacent. If you or someone you know lives in Massachusetts please get out the vote for Scott Brown for U.S. Senate!
