A REPORT FROM THE SCOTT BROWN RALLY AT WORCESTER (crowd overflowing to street)

A REPORT FROM THE SCOTT BROWN RALLY AT WORCESTER

“It’s an absolute mob scene. The police have closed off the streets. It’s mind blowing. The hall is already full, and it holds 3,000 people. There may be another 1,000 people outside.”

Meanwhile, reader Sean Fitzpatrick writes: “Pictures don’t do justice. Nothing like this in Mass since JFK. Worcester rally starts in thirty minutes and the streets are already packed.” Here’s a pic.

UPDATE: Fitzpatrick sends another picture from inside the hall, and comments: “If the Brown campaign were worried that they wouldn’t fill the hall then they needn’t have. It is standing room only and the hall management is concerned about OVERcrowding.”

I like the “Whole World Is Watching” sign at the lower left. Yep. And sometimes via cellphone pics.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Meanwhile, reportedly, Coakley can’t fill a hall. “Martha Coakley and Barack Obama held a rally today in Boston. They couldn’t fill the hall. . . . It holds 3,000 and frankly only 2,000 to 2,500 showed up.”

Nice job with the pics and a great crowd. The street scenes are pretty awesome. A lot of younger people too.

I know ... it stirs the heartstrings to
see the enthusiastic and emphatic public
participation to block these Marxists and
STOP the machine.

Freedom IS on the march .. this sentiment
will not go away. The sleeping giant ..
solid, decent Americans all .. has been
awakened.

The Democrats are in free-fall, and the far-left has become so desperate and so terrified that they are now watching the weather forecast as their only hope.

I live in the Worcester area and was trying to convince my young girls to go. Woulda, shoulda, coulda. This is historic, to put it mildly. I haven’t seen anything remotely similar in my 47 years here.

And in Boston, the Brown supporters outnumbered the Coakley supporters outside! It felt like a Scott Brown Rally.....tons of enthusiasm.

This is great, but I can’t help but wonder how many of these fickle bastards were responsible for giving us Obama and his Congress in the first place.

Gee, I can’t wait to see the ABC News coverage. Uh, well maybe CBS.....nahhh, NBC maybe.

I forget, the State Run Media isn’t covering the Grass Roots and the Tea Partiers. The Whole world isn’t Watching the Alphabet networks, and certainly these people will go home after the “Rally”......and they will notice the Lack of Coverage of the event.

It doesn’t Fit the SRM Message.
