Phone call from the Scott Brown rally, outside Mechanics Hall:
Up to 5,000 supporters of Scott Brown have gathered vociferously outside the hall, loud enough at times to drown out the phone conversation. Shouting slogans, they have blocked all four street lanes for about half a block around the rally point.
Only a few at a time were allowed into the hall for about 15 minutes and they have just announced that the hall is filled to capacity as are two overflow areas, one of which is Lexington Hall in the Crown Plaza hotel.
At least 2,000 people are still in the street outside the hall with no room for them to go. They are now marching toward another with a least 1,000 in front of Race Bannon who was one of the first to turn toward the new location and has that many behind him.
Whether sound and video will be piped to the oveflow areas was still unclear, though simulcast has been started at the Lexingtron Hall, whose 400 or so capacity has wall to wall, flesh to flesh packed attendance of at least 1,000 very enthusiastic supporters.
The rally includes visitors from New Jersey and parts of Illinois among other places.

Hey, if one of the biggest head busting, two fisted, ass kickers like Race Bannon is for Scott Brown, I am not going to argue.
at which venue, Brown of BO?
Permanent purple ink on the thumb during the first vote might make it fairly easy to inhibit multiple voting.
Meanwhile, reader Sean Fitzpatrick writes: “Pictures don’t do justice. Nothing like this in Mass since JFK. Worcester rally starts in thirty minutes and the streets are already packed.” Here’s a pic.
UPDATE: Fitzpatrick sends another picture from inside the hall, and comments: “If the Brown campaign were worried that they wouldn’t fill the hall then they needn’t have. It is standing room only and the hall management is concerned about OVERcrowding.”
I like the “Whole World Is Watching” sign at the lower left. Yep. And sometimes via cellphone pics.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Meanwhile, reportedly, Coakley can’t fill a hall. “Martha Coakley and Barack Obama held a rally today in Boston. They couldn’t fill the hall. . . . It holds 3,000 and frankly only 2,000 to 2,500 showed up.”

Despite being told not to support RINOS:
Go Brown Go!
I’ll take a imperfect GOPer over a perfect Dim every day!
Ping!
Put your photos on here!
Thanks Race!
You are so right about the 2nd American Revolution but if you had told me a month ago it would have started in MA, I would have laughed. Now I am laughing because it is happening in MA. The best place I can think of to send a message — liberal state of MA elects a Republican Senator.
WOW! What a speech!
Now, if only FOX would tell us they got footage of the Brown rally. :(
Race is a Freeper who is in Worcester. Freeper handle RaceBannon. Last seen leading 1000 Brown supporters to an alternate venue, the main hall being full.
Bump
The Dimwhitcrats are not going to let "The Won" become a lame duck before the 2010 elections without pulling out the stops first!
However if Brown wins then Atheists are going to have alot of explaining to do because such will be undeniable proof that there is indeed a Supreme Deity!
I'm glad there are FReepers who are willing to listen and report back on Obama's television appearances because I just can't force myself to listen to his voice or look at his face. My stomach literally balls up in a knot.
He said “We cannot look back and use the same old failed policies of the past”
I think this is one of those underhanded, blame it all on Bush jabs. I don't think he has the capacity to understand the history of America. He doesn't 'get' America. During his formative years he was being raised and educated overseas so he never experienced what growing up to be a United States of America patriot is all about. I really believe he is incapable of understanding what it feels like to have your breath catch in your throat when the flag passes by and the National Anthem is being played. He has never had those feelings about anything so how can he understand freedom and independence?
We will not falter.
We will not fail.
You’ve never walked “The Freedom Train”, have you. As strange as Mass can be at times, they were all taught our history, which is their history. Sometimes, they even remember!
Bingo! You have nailed it! If people haven’t gotten a clue after watching the Blue Dogs vote with Pelosi, then it is useless. Any GOP is better then the Dems of today except in a rare instance.
Brown is light years better then Coakley.
