Redmass Group reports a startling endorsement from the mayor of the seventh largest city in Massachusetts:

James Sheets a six term Democratic mayor of Quincy today endorsed Scott Brown for United States Senator. He released the following statement via the Brown campaign:

"Despite being a lifelong member of the Democratic Party, I am endorsing Scott Brown for Senate, as I know he will always represent Massachusetts with an independent voice in Washington," Sheets said. "Martha Coakley has repeatedly stated she would cast the critical 60th vote for the current health care proposal that would slash Medicare funding by nearly half-a-trillion dollars and dramatically impact the care so many seniors rely upon in their final years. As our United States Senator, I am confident Scott Brown will only support legislation that will benefit his constituents, and this is why I will be voting for him on Tuesday."

Lots of disaffected Democrats. Brown is picking up 20% of the Democratic vote tomorrow.

I sense there is nice lady, who some would say could shed a few pounds, that is warming up her vocal chords.

“Quincy is a traditional “blue collar Democat” town.”

Does it have a lot of Catholics who work in emergency rooms?

Now Quincy? Man how things have changed. I remember living in MA in the seventies. There is a lot of compassionate blue collar people up there. Maybe they are finally sick of being taken for granted!

G-d Bless the Commonwealth and the true Patriots!

Well it was an overwhelingly Irish area before. The demographics have changed to an extent, but Catholics make up a large block of the folks there.

I bet a good number of folks that work at the hospital there and in the area are Catholic or some type of Christian. :) I bet they don’t like being told they’re not qualified to work in a hospital.

We're witnessing something monumental here. I never dreamed this was possible in Massachusetts. Never.

Known as the "City Of The Presidents". It was the birthplace of John Adams and his son John Quincy Adams.

Health Care “reform” as currently constituted by Reid / Pelosi is beginning to be recognized as a toxic stew even by the RATs.

Very good stuff in my opinion!! Sometimes in politics you just get a really stupid opponent.
