Polls show Gomez closing on Markey days after Massachusetts Senate primary

Two new polls have Gabriel Gomez, the Republican candidate for a Senate seat out of Massachusetts, within single-digits of the front-running Democratic candidate -- just days after the Tuesday primaries.

I don’t care.

Any candidate, Republican or Democrat, that supports fag marriage and open-borders amnesty can go choke to death, as far as I’m concerned.

...and at one point in his life, Markey voted against Roe v. Wade. Voting Gomez will only bring more liberal candidates like him in the future. Only trying to out liberal each other. Just how stupid do guys like this think we are to try to pass off his line about being pro-life but Roe v. Wade is established law? Him and Markey ultimately are working for the same boss. And it's not the boss I answer to.

Here’s a column about Gomez and Markey, from the belly of the beast:

What is that group that researches people who falsely claim to be military heroes? I think it is called Stolen Valor. I am not saying that Gomez has lied but I will look it up just in case.

Here is a great review by www.massresistance.org. This is the group that is trying to stop the radical gay agenda in Massachusetts.

I am one of those people who believes in half a loaf is better than none, but this time I am saying forget about it. Throw Gomez to the sharks. Gomez is pulling our chain in a most disingenuous way. I am sick and tired of these rinos without a soul.

As was stated in the massresistance article, Gomez will bring the Republican Party way to the left. The last thing we need right now is another Republican caving on the Democrats’ issues. No more *me too* Republicans! We have to punish the rinos so that they know that there will be a price to pay when they abandon our nations long held beliefs. If Gomez wins and is rewarded for lying and double-dealing than all the fake Republicans throughout the country will start waving their liberal flags.

When it comes to the Presidential vote I think that you have to take the least bad candidate—I believe in half a loaf is better than none. But when it is a Senatorial vote it doesn't matter so much if we lose to the Democrats because a Senator is one of a hundred. A Senator does not have the special powers or the special honor that the President has. A Senator is one of a hundred but there is only one President.

If Ed Markey get elected it will be no game changer, he will be pretty much like John Kerry.

The article below has an excellent suggestion that Massachusetts could do what the New York Conservative Party does. They rarely run candidates but when they see a good Republican that shares their beliefs they will throw their support behind that candidate. This sounds like a good way to cut through all the false labeling that the rinos do, calling themselves conservative, pro-family—yadayadayada. Even the Massachsetts Tea Party is very suspect, it is just the old game of the insiders trying to co-opt any new challengers. With a Massachusetts Conservative Party that was not in competition with the Republican Party but would sort of act like the conscience of the party, it would be a good way to lead from the sidelines.

In other words there isn’t one thing that he says that isn’t crossed out by something else that he says. We should start calling him Mr. Tic-Tac-Toe.

Gomez didn’t so much talk as he kept repeating his talking points over and over again. That’s how they sell laundry soap in the tv commercials—just keep repeating the slogan over and over again.

That is exactly what occured to me too. He is an Arlen Specter. Arlen Specter only became a Republican because there were no spots open on the Democratic Party. Gomez was obviously going through the same motions as Specter.

These are moonbats you're talking about.

I know, hence the wink. It amuses me so that they call Bush conservative let alone equate him with the "tea party".

Don’t be surprised if Begich beggs for Lisa Murkowski to endorse him as a part of a “I’m a post partisan problem solver”. Murkowski may decide to threaten a Begich endorsement to get more pork from Mitch McConnell.

I don’t think Chafee or Jeffwhores as I used to call him ever pretended to be conservative like Gomez is.

I would figure him being a bit worse Brown, right in Kirk territory.

I’d vote for him if I lived there but whatever.

He’s a Democrat who supported and gave money to Ubama.
The ‘R’ is just something he’s using in order to run.

Forget Massachusetts. It’s a hopeless toilet.

That’s my opinion just from reading his own issue positions on his own website, left of Brown, maybe another Mark Kirk. He seems smarmy too.

http://www.gomezforma.com/issues/

“I oppose discrimination of any kind. Same sex couples should be free to marry.”

Fail.

“Most undocumented workers are hard workers who contribute to our economy. It is time to bring illegal immigrants or undocumented workers out of the shadows,”

EPIC FAIL

“I am a proud Catholic, and pro-life.

But Roe v Wade is settled law.”

The mealy mouthed Ted Kennedy position, just say you are pro-choice, cause you are.

That’s like saying Obamacare is bad but it’s settled law so we should move on, I just hate that kind of nonsense. No matter what he actually thinks that paints him in a terrible light. I’d have much more respect for him if he just said he was pro-choice.

I’d vote for him if I lived there, it’s Chinatown. Another loss in MA would humiliate them, that’s reason enough for me. I can’t argue with those that say “eff it” though.

if ya lived there you’d see that there is no conservative infrastructure to support conservative candidates ... hence, none of the aforementioned.

ain’t no discussion of him on the ground. But I no longer get Springfield MA local news cuz the signal is blocked with digital and cable don’t carry.

Despite the title of his organization, this writer has negotiable principles. It's pretty simple. Either you're a conserative -- and you vote that way all the time -- or you aren't.

I dreamt of the NBA playoffs, Celtic-less
Yet the Bruins win with style
Webster implodes on the mound

The door opens for Jose De La Torre
no longer laboring in obscurity
Gabriel Gomez, you say?

Those in the subculture of the right
know him not! Labor on, obscure one.

Off to scout the Seadogs after a treadmill stint
the hobbies of middle-aged dropouts
Has the GopsterinMa changed his says?
