Ping to baseball fan FRiends... Note that there are several new "Schilling might run for Kennedy's seat in MA" threads on FR. Do a "Titles" search on "Schilling" to see them all.

Shilling may have a shot to pull it off in Mass, especially since the Dem poll numbers nationally are going into the toilet.
Jackie MacMullin on Around the Horn says he doesn’t have a chance. That means he does.
Major league World Series pitchers make good Senators.
They already are used to fame, used to have every little thing they do on the mound watched by millions, and then performing and winning.
