Thousands turn out for Brown in Worcester
Boston Herald ^ | 1/17/2010

Posted on 01/17/2010 2:55:28 PM PST by Ladycalif

An animated crowd of more than 3,000 supporters are rallying for GOP Senate hopeful Scott Brown in Worcester this afternoon, in a last-minute get-out-the vote push for the suddenly popular state senator.

“This race is close, but it’s not over,” Brown said at a campaign stop earlier today. “Every vote will count in this election.”

While President Obama stumps for Attorney General Martha Coakley in Boston, Brown is taking the stage at Mechanics Hall with Red Sox [team stats] ace pitcher Curt Schilling [stats], Boston College legend and NFL star Doug Flutie, “Cheers” star John Ratzenberger, as well as his daughter, Ayla Brown.

Hmmmmmm, 3000 at a Brown rally and 1500-2000 at a Obama-Coakley rally. Sounds good to me.

He needs to have that young kid who heckled Obama today,
on the platform with him for the next two days.

Curt Schilling helped my two favorite teams win the World Series. The Diamondbacks and the Red Sox. He’s a winner!

“Every vote will count...”

***

Especially for the Dems. They’ll try to make those votes count twice.

And of course, they could always make up the shortfall by getting in those ballots from the cemeteries.

And then, there was this idiot:

“Karen Kappes, of Holden, said she was afraid for her safety at the event.

“I’m concerned about the level of anger,” said Kappes, a Coakley supporter. “I’ve never felt unsafe when I was out campaigning before.”

Although I grew up in Arizona, I was born in MA. Being a diehard Red Sox fan is in the genes. It's something I can't help. LOL!

As a Yankee fan I change my mind about Schilling, the man! But, I’ll never change my mind about Schilling, the player or the Red Sox. They both suck!!

I’m an NYC Blue Jay fan - Schilling’s been a winner everywhere he’s gone: Boston ‘04, Arizona ‘01, and I won’t forget his 2-0 shutout over Juan Guzman and the Blue Jays in ‘93, which Joe Carter a few days later made a lot easier to accept. Hopefully Tuesday Schilling adds another win to his stellar career.

“I’ve never felt unsafe when I was out campaigning before.”

Stolen elections have consequences ... you are ‘feeling’ them now, Ms. Kappes.

Typical bedwetting liberal. They are the most vicious. This woman would killl her baby and have it sucked out of her womb, but she's "afraid" because some of her neighbors differ with her on political issues. What a lowlife slut..
