Over and over I read comments gloomily describing how Brown would have to win by double digits to overcome the inevitable ACORN and union fraud.

Ah, so she's a freeper!

Great article. Everyone here should read it. Great job by the lady in MA, the other volunteers and others who helped Scott.

Obviously a fictionalized article. Everyone in the MSM told me that conservative activists are all toothless redneck racists, and they wouldn’t lie.

Have a feeling these types of wonderful stories will be filling the airwaves with each election. It’s amazing...finally the people are waking up from a very bad dream of “hopie and changie.”

I hope the leaders of the Stupid Party down in Washington sincerely listen to the Carols and Paulettes of America.

And thank you to all those Tea Party members who drove to MA and volunteered their time and money to the Brown campaign. God bless them.

There were a lot of us working the phones and standing in the snow carry signs. We didn’t quit or go home. You should have seen the roof raise at Mechanics Hall rally for Brown. The Brown win was truly a major event and a sight to behold. We overwhelmed the opposition. It can be done.

The sheeple are finally getting it. If they don’t stop the madness, it will affect them, their pocketbook and their children.

Anectdotal evidence isn’t proof, but hear this. My daughter was apolitical for years. She didn’t understand my interest in history and activism in politics.

All of a sudden, at age 40 she thinks Glen Beck is a guru emails conservative and anti-Obama stuff to all her friends and goes to tea parties.

Brown's win taught us that no seat is 100% safe. My dream is to see that proven again in Barney Frank's district.

BEST NEWS YET Bwaney Frank’s 4th congressional district went overwhelmingly for Scott Brown; just five of the 24 cities and towns voted for Coakley. Frank acknowledges that it may be a tougher race than he’s used to. “But, if I want to get re-elected it’s my job to talk about the issues and my record, and that’s the nature of democracy,” he said.........fierce competition or not, Frank said he will “definitely” seek re-election this November.

NOT HIS DECISION TO MAKE What this self-absorbed Lipless Wonder fails to fathom is that his constituients (including those townhallers he sneered at) will decide whether he is fit to run for reelection. Now Frank wants to talk about his "record?" Fine. Here it is.

Let The Inquisition Start With Barney Frank
Investor's Business Daily | 3/6/09
FR Posted on 03/08/2009 by FreeManN

Congressman Barney Frank says he wants some of those responsible for our current financial meltdown to be prosecuted. And we couldn't agree more. First up in the court dock: Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass.

Even by the extraordinarily loose standards of Congress, it takes some chutzpah for someone such as Frank to suggest that he'll seek prosecutions for those behind the housing and financial crunch and for what he called "a strongly empowered systemic risk regulator." Frank: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's point man in Washington.

For Frank, perhaps more than any single individual in private or public life, is responsible for both the housing market mess and subsequent bank disaster. And no, this isn't partisan hyperbole or historical exaggeration. But first, a little trip down memory lane. (Excerpt) Read more at ibdeditorial.com ...

THE WORM TURNS Barney Frank: The Poor Should Rent, Not Own (Dem admits disastrous mistake)
The Atlantic | 02/01/10 | Daniel Indiviglio /
FR Posted 02/02/2010 by TigerLikesRooster

In its final installment of the Big Think's "Went Went Wrong" Series on the financial crisis, they interviewed Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA). Much of the interview was predictable: Frank mostly explained what anyone closely following the financial regulation push in Congress already knew. But there was one fascinating gem in discussing where Fannie and Freddie went wrong. Frank views ushering the poor to own homes as a mistake and believes they should rent instead.

Frank was responding to the question about how Fannie and Freddie could be structured to avoid moral hazard and a too cozy relationship with the regulators.

After stating that we should separate the liquidity creation function from the subsidy objective (which we already knew he supported), Frank said: "I think the answer is you separate out the function of providing the equity in general for the mortgage market and doing some subsidy and in my judgment, the subsidy again, as I said before, should be focused on affordable rental housing, not in pushing low income people into owning homes that they can't afford."

ARTICLE EXCERPT 1. There are lots of voters out there who agree with us. Poll after poll shows that conservatives are the largest voting bloc in America. 2. There is no substitute for personal, grassroots involvement. 3. Democrat and ACORN fraud cannot overcome a tidal wave of conservative and like-minded independent voters, even in liberal Mass and NJ. ACORN is no match for energized, intelligent, informed conservatives. 4. Get involved early. Making last minute telephone calls is better than nothing, but it isn't good enough.

ACTION MEMO

Under no circumstances should conservatives allow the GOP and/or the RNC to hijack the tea party and the grass roots movements that elected Scott Brown. REMEMBER: They don't use us to get elected----we use them to achieve conservative goals.

WE WILL HOLD CANDIDATES' FEET TO THE FIRE It's in our hands to dictate the terms by which we support candidates. Below are the terms under which conservatives permit candidates to earn our support:

(1) Your conservative group holds an official position within the campaign;

(2) Your group's issue is affirmed in the candidate's platform;

(3) Your group is in attendance at all campaign strategy meetings;

(4) Your group holds a paid job in the campaign;

(5) Your group holds a paid position in the winning candidate's elective office.

(6) The candidate must renounce RINOS and pukeneos before he/she gets conservative endorsement.

PASS THE WORD Contact tea partiers, 9/12 marchers, pro-lifers; defense of marriage, 2nd amendment, anti ObamaCare, anti-amnesty, anti-cap/trade conservatives.

====================================

HOW TO HANDLE THE RNC

When you receive an RNC fundraising call or letter, simply reply: " In lieu of a contribution to the RNC, a donation in your name has been sent to the Scott Brown Relection Committee, The Ntl RTL Committee, 2nd Amendment Committee," etc.

This is AWESOME!

Another way to change things is to get involved!

I got in touch with my local city administrators and inquired about becoming a commission member or some other committee in my hometown as positions opened up. Lo-n-behold I am now on one of those! I can make a difference in my hometown and become a leader that way.

We get caught up in how HUGE the nation is and how small we are individually. One person can change the dynamic of many. Be the one that changes the dynamic! At any level! It all adds up!

MSNBCABCCBSCNNNYTIMESWASHINGTONPOSTREUTERS, Media Matters, Daily KOS, DU, etc said the Tea Bag movement is not a grass-roots, liberty loving, patriotic movement but a vapid, racist klan-inspired, birther revolutionary conspiracy seeking to take over the government.

During recent conversations with people that consider themselves liberals, I learned that they faithfully believe Marxism is the idea of the nation not capitalism. They all hate christianity, more than is rational. To them, governments grant rights and take rights away, so the part about God and inalienable rights makes them shutter with sudden hate. Swear they believe this. Dissuading them founding fathers were capitalists and marxism is unconstitutional is near impossible.

That to me is key. We must turn out the vote in huge numbers just to counter all of their fraudulent votes.
