The American Revolutionary War began in Massachusetts with the Battles of Lexington and Concord, on April 19th, 1775. Following what Emerson referred to as the “Shot heard ‘round the world”, a small fledgling colony stood up against the tyranny of the greatest military force on earth… And won. Great men and women stood up in perilous times and prevailed against what appeared to be unconquerable odds. Some have referred to the present day as perilous times, and once again the people of Massachusetts have an opportunity to set into motion a political revolution.
On January 19th, a special election will be held to fill a Senate seat that has been controlled by the Kennedy family since 1953. Leaving the individual politics of the candidates aside, there is very much more at stake here than simply who will be the new Jr. Senator from Massachusetts. The political future of the nation could be at stake.
It is currently a foregone conclusion that the seat will remain Democrat. But what if it doesn’t? What if the unthinkable happens, and a Republican actually wins the Kennedy heirloom? That would not only make national news, it would make international news. The headline writes itself: “Massachusetts voters fire second shot heard ‘round the world!”
However, the true importance of this election lies in the effect it would have on voters in 2010. Talk about energizing the base. The momentum that a GOP victory in Massachusetts would cause would be unstoppable. People would actually believe that that the Republicans can win in 2010, and win big. The Obama Administration would be dead in its tracks, and liberals would be wandering around dazed and confused (I mean more so than they already do).
So if you live in Massachusetts, or if you know anybody who lives in Massachusetts, please, convince them to get out and vote for Scott Brown. I know there are some who disagree with him on certain issues, but the implications of a GOP victory in this race far outweigh issue politics.
Too many Massachusetts Republicans and conservatives have felt helpless for far too long, and this is the first opportunity in well over 50 years to change that. So get out and hold signs, email, blog, and do whatever you can to bring about a GOP victory. January 19th could be the first battle in a second American Revolution, and once again, victory could rest in the hands of a few Massachusetts patriots. We won before, and we can do it again.
What is Scott Brown like - is he a conservative?
It would be good to have the seat go to a Republican, perhaps, but the analogy to Lexington & Concord or a Second American Revolution is a stretch.
Given that The Sheeples Republic (right!!) of Taxachusetts has repeately sent the likes of Teddy Kennedy, John “Swiftboat” Kerry, Bawney Fwank, et al to Malfunction Junction, it’s far more likely that THIS revolution will begin in Texas, Oklahoma or other points south.
There have been countless “Second Shot(s) Heard ‘Round the World” but not have been that shot.
It’s coming I fear, but the winner or loser of an election isn’t it.
Is he an "according to Hoyle" conservative? Probably not, but Coakley is an "According to Hoyle" Moonbat, no doubt about it.
Scott Brown for Senate Website
And as I said before, the implications of victory would be national.
Ive always wondered why the people of Massachusetts elect such people as Barney Frank, Teddy Kennedy, Ed Markey, John Kerry...
It is precisely that type of attitude that I am trying to change.
What’s your take on this thread?
[Mr] T
Well, I've always wondered that myself. That's why I see this as an opportunity to change all that.
Good luck with that up there. In several lifetimes maybe.
I wonder how many Mass libs will suffer vapor lock of the brain when they walk into a voting booth and NOT find a Kennedy name to flip.
Meant to mention that a black, conservative female physician — Mildred Jefferson — ran against Teddy Bare a number of years ago.
The leftist morons up there RE-ELECTED Teddy!
Ok, maybe it's a stretch, but I am trying to illustrate a point. The Kennedy seat is considered a lost cause, but I can tell you that there are a lot of true conservatives up here who have simply felt locked out of the process for decades.
This election is an opportunity to change that, and show the willingness to take on a lost cause and win.
Is Brown perfect? No. However, his website does say he supports the Second Amendment, that he believes marriage is between a man and a woman, and he supports the death penalty. For Massachusetts, that ain't too bad. Martha Coakley on the other hand is as radical left as they come, and her record as Middlesex D.A. is disgraceful. She would be really bad news. In fact, Brown has filed an ethics complaint against Coakley charging that she used state resources to rally SEIU volunteer support.
Dream on.
cuz they are dumbasses, and like being slaves.
Since her days in the Middlesex County D.A.s office as a assistant DA, Martha Coakely has given me the impression that she is far left of Ted Kennedy, and I despise the Kennedys. Lets not forget how she railroaded the entire Amerault family into prison, for years in the Fells Acres Daycare child rape case. Those kids said nothing happened, even under intense questioning until Martha brought the shrinks in. Once her shrinks came into the case the kids all magically started to remember being molested. Martha was just using it as a stepping stone to be elected District Attorney.
Mass. voters are reliable - Martha Coakley has said and done far too many insane Moonbat (like keep an innocent man in jail when even the prosecutors said he was innocent) to not be the Senator from Massachusetts for the rest of her natural life. She and Kerry will make a great pair representing the “Commonwealth”.
I never miss an election. I've never voted for a Democrat in my life. I will be voting for Scott Brown. Brown isn't perfect, but he's good enought o get my vote (I ABSOLUTELY refuse to ever vote for a RINO again).
Coakley is such an unlikable nutcase that there is a slight chance that Brown will win.
