Want a Preview of 2010 if Brown wins? Teabaggers Give One!
Edited on Sat Jan-16-10 06:41 PM by Blaukraut
Tea Party members brew Scott Brown boost


Massachusetts is becoming ground zero for the national Tea Party movement as emboldened activists flock from Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York in hopes of helping Scott Brown’s meteoric campaign close the deal in the race for U.S. Senate.

“If Brown wins this election, it will be the shot heard around the world,” said Rhode Island Tea Party President Colleen Conley. “This will be a clear indictment of the Obama presidency and the Democratic Congress overreaching.”

Michigan’s Jeffrey McQueen, founder of USRevolution2.com, which produces a modified American flag that’s become a symbol of the Tea Party movement, said a Brown win “would send earthquake tremors through the Democratic Party.”

He added, “If we can win a Senate seat in Massachusetts, there’s no place we can’t win. To lose Teddy Kennedy’s seat? Jeez. I mean, what’s next?”


This is what we get to look forward to in the coming months and up to '12. These freaks will be unstoppable.

On edit:
I am trying to point out the importance of a Coakley win in MA, just in case that wasn't clear :)

5. They're focusing on the one poll

But they know in the back of their mind all the other polls showing Coakley ahead are there.

7. Four out of the last six polls show Brown ahead.

8. You can forget the Suffolk poll and the CrossTarget one is whack

Five ThirtyEight has Suffolk near the bottom for accuracy since 2004. They had Corzine up nine points and he lost by four.

And what's up with CrossTarget? Did they only poll Republicans?

The other two polls are well inside the margin of error so they're a wash.

4. I thought NY-23 was supposed to be the shot heard around the world

So when Coakley wins, will we be able to call it the complete rejection of the tea bagger movement?

6. That's the idea
The teabaggers need to be rejected soundly and a Coakley win will take some more wind out of their overbloated sails.
