Jim Geraghty posted something at the campaign stop at National Review<\/a> on the special election to be held in Massachusetts on January 19th to fill the seat of the late Senator Ted Kennedy.  Massachusetts is a totally Democrat state.  Every now and again they elect a Republican governor the clean up the mess the Democrats make, but generally it is a one-party state.  The fact that Scott Brown raised more than $600,000 in December<\/a> is amazing.  <\/p>\n

This is a note sent to Mr. Geraghty by a worker in the Scott Brown campaign:<\/p>\n

“First, thank-you for covering this race as the lack of national attention on this race at this time in the Senate is genuinely vexing to many of Brown’s supporters.
 
“Secondly, at the ground level we have seen an incredibly unique phenomenon occurring here. Without the benefit of polls, I would say Brown is causing quite a groundswell of support from Republicans, unenrolleds and even Democrats. Now when registered Democrats are expressing an interest to volunteer, we know something is up.
 
“In the end, it might be the lack of national attention that helps us towards victory here. For Coakley’s supporters don’t even believe a race is occurring. And the fiscal conservatives of Massachusetts are by far, hands down the most motivated group in our state during this special election.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Scott Brown represents the potential 41st Republican vote in Congress.  He represents the vote that would be able to stop the runaway spending and the coming runaway taxation.  I don’t know what his chances of winning are, but I do know that for the good of the country, he needs to be elected.<\/p>\n

If you live in Massachusetts, please vote for Scott Brown on January 19th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
