Money Bomb For Scott Brown–
Check out this incredible video from the debate tonight:
“It’s not Teddy Kennedy’s seat. It’s the people’s seat.”
Wow! This guy is awesome.
Republican Scott Brown has raised $750,000 in today’s money bomb.
He’s going for $1,000,000.
** You can donate to Scott Brown here.
Meanwhile, Fred Bauer breaks down the latest poll and it may not be the best news for Democrat Coakley.
—The debate tonight will be livestreamed at WHDH.
UPDATE: The Boston Herald endorsed Scott Brown today.
Earlier today Massachusetts Troopers backed Scott Brown.
UPDATE: Brown has reached the $800,000 mark.
UPDATE: (8:00 CST) The total is now at $930,000.
UPDATE: (8:46 PM CST) Done- Brown raises over $1,000,000 in one day.
UPDATE: I’m just watching the C-SPAN debate and that independent candidate Joe Kennedy is an idiot. He just blamed the US for Al-Qaeda hating us.
… Idiot.
Oh, and Martha Coakley is a loon. She supports withdrawal from Afghanistan because the Taliban is no longer in Afghanistan. What?

Mr. Soros, better open up that checkbook right quick, if you plan on keeping control of the House and Senate. Time for Carville and Begala to send in the Union goons. Time for ACORN to start casting ballots. Might even be time for the fraud himself to put in an appearance – but I’m guessing he’d only do so on video tape. THIS is what we’ve been waiting for – our only chance to be heard is at the ballot box.

The Boston Herald endorsed Scott Brown today b/c BozoDeath economy is tanking them all in the print media — and/or now the electronic media. It is a survival mode proposition. After a while political party affiliation means little when the Children have nothing to eat or funds for school — due to Bozo’s attempt to destroy the U.S.A. and lift up Islam’s Jihadi culture around the world. Many leftists in Europe ( even Canada) want Bozo to destroy the U.S.A. so they can come steal the loot and take over U.S. job-markets. They advocate BozoDeath b/c they know it will further tank the U.S. economy and an domino effect will benefit their economy.
Bozo is either the most stupidest person in the world or he is actually playing the part of destroyer of the U.S.A. and forcing lefty-media to follow a course into the grave.

Did I tell you I LOVE Scott Brown? And not just because he is HOT! He is conservative too!
Militant Conservative commented:
Jo, the NOTUS WANTS the economy in the tank so he can get his agenda passed. (Socialism) This is the biggest bait and switch in plain sight I have ever seen. I still do not beleive Mr. Brown will win (hope he does). Too much corruption and money to burn on the line. Stimulus monies will help secure his defeat.
We are in Dark times brought to you by the uninformed electorate. GO SCOTT BROWN!! Do NOT conceed until a week after the results are in. (tampering) Tyranny is afoot and my powder is dry.

I did, but am hoping it just means they are having an overload of donors. I just tried again and the money total was $1,012,059.94.
Scott commented:
Chris: Yes.
I think alot of people like me had the money bomb page up watching the total climb. I have a feeling traffic is crashing the site (and preventing people who want to contribute from doing so).

The naysayers are saying this still won’t be enough to pull it out for Brown. I say, eat a bit bowl of STFU. (Sorry).
What are they going to say? Although there are some right-leaning defeatists among those naysayers, the lefties among the naysayers are simply engaging in wishful thinking. They’re the same simpletons that were saying the same thing in the Democrat stronghold of Massachusetts during elections when Republicans like William Weld, Paul Cellucci, and Mitt Romney all won statewide elections to become governor of that leftist haven of a state.
Scott Brown may or may not win the special election, but he certainly has a reasonable chance. The fact that lefties are pretending that they are confident about Martha Coakley winning can only be attributed to hope and wishful thinking because deep down they do fear that Brown could win. Considering the recent statewide elections in Virginia and New Jersey, the latter which has many similarities to Massachusetts, plus the country’s negativity towards the health care plan and the plummeting job approval numbers for Obama and the Dems in Congress, the left should be scared. To top it off, Coakley is a horrible candidate with a lot of professional baggage, while Coakley and the Dems have to resort to the pathetic tactic of linking Brown to Bush/Cheney because there really aren’t a lot of attack options against Brown for them to pursue.
Bottom line: Brown can win this thing.
Stephen commented:
Based on the increase from $807,177.98 at 7:10 to $1,012,059.94 at 9:42, he’s raising around $966.42 per minuite. Given he has $1,050,156.36 as of 10:04, at the above rate, he’ll have 1,162,261.58 by midnight EST, perhaps topping $1,335,000 by midnight PST.
Given the machine he’s up against, he’ll need every last penny and then some. The odds are looking brighter and brighter, it seems that the main worry is whether or not the bills will be reconciled before he gets elected. The LWLs know that if, dare I say when he wins, their power is broken and will do anything to get at least one ‘achievement’ done before that can happen.
Patriotic commented:
This is great news. Thanks Jim for giving Scott the attention. Massachusetts, and the rest of America, needs him in Congress.

Steve J.,
Well, Brown may have lost his bid for your heart, but, given the political atmosphere in Massachusetts, he probably couldn’t have said any less (or more). If I recall correctly, Brown has already, and clearly, stated his opposition to, among other things, partial-birth abortion. That’s a start, don’t you think?
Let’s put it this way: a future Senator Scott Brown won’t be as conservative as Jim DeMint, but, on the other hand, he won’t be as liberal as Olympia Snowe. Most of us are realistic enough to deal with that.
crystal commented:
I’m a pretty hard-core conservative, and I sent money to his campaign. It’s time to focus on the country, and put aside differences within the party. What’s the point of anything if America as we know it is no more?

Valerie commented:
PSSST!
Those who have bothered to read the Roe v. Wade decision know that it put up a barrier against ever giving the government the power to coerce abortions.
One of the key observations in Roe v. Wade is that, if the government is ever granted the power to intervene in a decision, it will make that decision, and there is no way to ensure what the decision will be.
Thus, the decision to have an abortion is at first left with the mother, and as time passes, the States may assert an interest in the health and welfare of the developing child. Nobody is allowed, ever, to force another person to have an abortion.
It’s not perfect, but it forces each decision to abort a baby to be an individual decision by the person with the greatest interest in it’s well-being.
That’s why the decision hasn’t been overturned.

Steve J. @ 10:45 pm #39
it’s what they call stare decisis..
most everyone, including Justice Roberts agree on that, but he did not
say “ABORTIONS SHOULD BE PAID WITH TAXPAYER DOLLARS”
that also doesn’t mean that it can’t someday be overturned, they haven’t arrived as yet, but there’s hope (many people are changing their minds about abortion as more & more are being enlightened as to the fact that life begins at conception)..
ps: from what i read, that Coakley is outright stupid, especially about
AQ, not to mention the scope of the terrorism threat we face.. duh!!

re: [“He said he supported the Roe v.
Wade ruling that legalized abortion.”]
he also said:
[When Ms. Coakley said Mr. Brown filed an amendment to the state’s emergency contraception law to allow hospitals to refuse to provide that treatment to rape victims, Mr. Brown said that amendment would have allowed hospitals with “religious preferences” to not perform abortions
or “those services.” When she asked specifically whether he meant emergency contraception services, he responded, “I’m not a defendant,
I’d like to answer the question.”
Mr. Brown said that amendment was supported “by many people” and that he later supported the overall bill making emergency contraception available at hospitals. He said he supported the Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion.]
btw.. i don’t believe he said “that legalize abortion”, as you can plainly see, that entire statement was not “in quotes”, ergo, i’m certain the info in the second paragraph was added by the ignorant author of the article.. bottom line: who knows what he actually stated if they couldn’t even “quote” him..
duh!!

It seems some here sense the aroma of Soros paid troll’s talking points? ! The love of the left Soros who was a Nazi informer who kept busy and built a fortune turning in Jews in hiding at age 15 so he and his daddy could loot their belongings. Soros’s corruption and unabridled devotion to theft, brigandage, and looting tells us he was truly a leftist progressive enamored with Hitler’s unbridle power & national socialism.

I think they plan to pull a Frankin and hold up the final tally until all the votes are recounted and then again and again. You all know their devious method by now.
BigAlSouth commented:
At least Scott knows a little more than Coakley about the Taliban: “If the goal was and the mission in Afghanistan was to go in because we believed that the Taliban was giving harbor to terrorists. We supported that. I supported that. They’re gone. They’re not there anymore.” — Martha Coakley
Y’all got a real winner, Mass.
nadadhimmi commented:
Brown will have to beat Coakley by 4-5 points to be declared the winner. Acorn and Seiu thugs will take care of any deficit less than that. The Dems are experts in stealing elections with fraud, illegal alien, and dead voters.

REACTIONS TO MY BROWN POST
I’ve gone to several winger blogs and posted the fact that Brown said he was for Roe v. Wade and I’m a little surprised by the reaction. Most people seem to think that’s OK because you have to adjust for the fact that Massachusetts is very liberal.

It would seem that lil stevey is just another leftard troll who wants to see if he can get a few people to drop their support of Brown because of a *supposed* belief in RvW.
(Note there is NO direct quotation of Brown’s cited.)
Pay no attention to the trolls. They’re just looking for eeyores to scare.
Too bad that they’re the ones running scared, though.
