Kerry Warns of "Dangerous Atmosphere" Around Brown Rallies [Daniel Foster]

Sen. John Kerry (D., Mass.) thinks Scott Brown’s rallies in the Bay State are “reminiscent of the dangerous atmosphere of Sarah Palin’s 2008 campaign rallies,” the Boston Globe is reporting.

Kerry says Brown supporters have engaged in “bullying and intimidation tactics” in the past few days and suggests that some of them may even be from out of state (would the senator rather keep the race local?)

“I'm no stranger to hard fought campaigns, but what we've seen in the past few days is way over the line and reminiscent of the dangerous atmosphere of Sarah Palin's 2008 campaign rallies. This is not how democracy works in Massachusetts," Kerry said in a written statement Monday.

“Scott Brown needs to speak up and get his out of state tea party supporters under control. In Massachusetts, we fight hard and win elections on the issues and on our differences, not with bullying and threats,” the senator said.

The Globe piece doesn’t have Kerry referencing specific incidents that are cause for concern.

I think the Ketchup King is doing a bit of projecting. What a smarmy one-trick pony. And as for dangerous, you’re in big danger of being next to go down at the polls, pious pig.

“Scott Brown needs to speak up and get his out of state tea party supporters under control.

...and the AG of the US needs to speak up and get those who would banish night sticks in front of polling booths under control.

Let’s see here:

Tea party rallies are peaceful and we police the area for trash leaving it cleaner than we found it.

Democrat rallies require extra police and sanitation workers.

Oh I forgot, there was the vendor in St Louis that got assaulted by the SEIU at a tea party...

Mayhaps John "THE RAT BASTARD, SNAKE & AVOWED 'TRAITOR'" Kerry, might considering showing up at one of Scott's rallies and then he could put in for another one of his Phony Purple Hearts?

While we Nam Vets might not been singularly responsible for this F'n a-hole's defeat, we certainly contributed considerably thereto

As the ol saying goes: "Revenge is a dish best tasted cold" and we waited 30 years for ours and it tasted Delicious!!!

Do we have another filing coming up from the Brown camp? This would seem to be as big a lie as the Coakley brochure was. If I were Brown, I'd pounce on his bones immediately (metaphorically speaking, of course, ugh...).

It is also because John Kerry has to face the ire of the 58 other remaining Senate RATS:

1. Kerry failed to deliver Martha — and failed to recognize over the holidays that Scott Brown was quietly building momentum

2. More significantly, it was Kerry who engineered the State Legislature to change the law in 2004 such that the Governor would not appoint an interim senator that would serve out the remainder of the term until the next election. Kerry was so brazenly confident that he’d win the presidency that the RATS passed a law, over Governor Romney’s veto, mandating a new election so that Mitt Romney would not be able to appoint a Republican to the seat. Had they left the law alone, Governor Patrick would have had a RAT in that seat until November 2010.

Sweet irony and just desserts for these people.

"Scott Brown needs to speak up and get his out of state tea party supporters under control.....

Hey Mr. Heinz, this Senate race is of national interest, relevance and impact. The eyes and hearts of national and international liberty lovers — like Sarah Palin and her supporters — are invested in the outcome. Get used to the inconvenient attention that underhanded, corrupt, constitution-destroying, communist agendas attract ... it's just beginning.

There’s only one liberal play-book ploy left for Martha:

Tomorrow she will claim she’s getting death threats!

Liberals think that’s their magic ticket to victory. LOL!

Comments like his may very well make that so.

He’s making the same mistake that the dems made over the town hall protests and I think that’s played a big part in what happened in VA, NJ and now MA.

Calling your ticked off constituents names and trying to portray them as a bunch of crazies hasn’t proven to be good campaign strategy.

I’m willing to bet they cannot document a single case of intimidation. If they could, they would have already shown footage of the offended party from a local news interview, uplinked to the MSM or CNN and MSNBC. It’s all a lie.
