Seniors are a huge voting bloc in S. Florida, where I live. They put the Lyin’ King in power, and now they hate his guts.

Seniors are a big factor in MA too. They are a little less liberal than the S. Florida bunch, but still in thrall to the “Kennedy Mystique”.

I know. I lived there for 47 years and had relatives that were domestic servants at the compound in Hyannis.

They were like Cult Members. (sigh)

I think it’s going to depend on whether or not the bus loads of “voters” from the surrounding states are able to get through. It’s supposed to snow there.

Your gut is telling you it “WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN” and, sadly, your gut may be correct.

Every republican, conservative and independent with a camera, video or camera phone needs to just camp out at the polls keeping watch over the proceedings. If there are any disturbances or shenanigans of any kind they will be captured and can lead to arrest or other legal actions.

'Tis what I'm most afraid will happen. No doubt the Obama war room has dispatched the ACORN & SEIU thugs and are busing in voters with manufactured voter registration cards.

I pray to God that Brown will prevail, but realize the devil is working over-time these days.

Incorrect. Three weeks ago was the last day to register to vote in Tuesday’s election

Are all of the college students back yet.
Don’t many colleges in MA have some sort of intersession break and the students don’t start toward the end of January?

You might be talking about the Needham of 30 years ago.
The new Needham is full of Moonbats.

Anyways, Myself, Family and friends are all voting for Brown come Tuesday.

You can tell from reading at FR that some Freepers in other parts of the country really have no understanding about Moonbats. They can’t quite really believe that they could believe what they believe and act as they act. But anyone in the Greater Boston area has no problem at all understanding the existence and proliferation of Moonbats.

Well predictions of a high turnout do two things beyound who turnout helps:

1. Make it less noticeable if the Dim add in some extra votes.

2. Make it dangerous to vote for someone else because they might show up at the polls later.

I would think high turnout would benefit Brown. Low turnout would suggest a base election. In Massacusetts, a base election would decidedly favor the Dems. A high turnout would mean lots of independents are voting, and independents are breaking huge for Brown.

That’s why they’re freaking...they didn’t think they would need the deceased vote three weeks ago and now it’s too late. ;-)

I have the Smartest Moonbat in the world living behind me.
She is the smartest, She even tells me so, just ask her.

She cuts her grass with scissors, Really, And has been on a house paint scrapping mission with an old rusty putty spreader for the past 3 summmers, when she’s not borrowing my ladder every week to check her gutters for something.
But she IS a genius.

10-4...God works in mysterious ways...and Browns recent surge is a late 4th quarter in the game with little time left for the opponent.

“Browns recent surge is a late 4th quarter in the game with little time left for the opponent.”

Which could go a long way to explaining the complete panic on the part of the Dems, and the blatantly open astro-turfing by SEIU, MoveOn.Borg, etc,etc.

I choose Good! People want to be part of change
++++++++++++++++++

Momentum is on Brown’s side. This is good. The only problem will be if it’s close, then they’ll delay, delay...to keep the substitute Senator in long enough to pass socialist care.
