Too much to dream that this guy could replace Kennedy.

I don’t know: replacing a guy who’s main goal was to get on base with a guy...

"Unlock the sock ... vote Schilling!"

[Parley Baer]

“Schilling said one of his primary “credentials” would be that he “has no baggage - no special interests and no ties.””

That would be no problem for the msm and the dimoKKKRATS. They will just make something up.

I hope he runs. Might have to send money to support his campaign.

I wrote to our local Rep. last night, and got a reply from her this morning. She's a Republican, one of a very few, in the MA house, and not only does she oppose an interim appointment by the Governor, she's introducing a measure to have the Special Election held on Nov. 3rd, when there will be other municipal elections. That way, folks will be going to the polls anyway, there won't be as much of a threat of a snowstorm to mess up election day, and it would obviate the need for that interim appointment.

I wrote her back and told her I liked the plan, but wondered if there were any Republicans who were ready to run. I guess they'd be on par with most of the Democrats in terms of money on hand, since no one else had begun fundraising, either.

Curt Schilling would have instant name recognition, though, that's something in his favor.
