Yep. I’ll tell you, if Scott wins and they deny him his seat while rushing through a vote on Obamacare, I’ll join a march on Boston. I’m only about 40 min outside the city.

Of course the dems will delay seating Brown.

And the Republicans will have to delay the health care bill.

The thing about delaying is that both sides can play that game, and both have the procedures to do so.

The dems want the public to think they are in control, when in fact, the people are in control, and they had better start listening to them.

Put them away. ACORN, MoveOn, SEIU, and the Kennedys themselves will never allow Brown to win this thing. Get ready for Minnesota all over again. Weeks and months of recounts, with nothing but liberals doing the counting, until Coakley is pronounced Masachusettes Senator.

On a side note, a guy on a non-political forum I’m on just posted that he just saw AF1 land at BOS.

I asked if that was where they were setting up the Haitian Relief Command Center.

These are dems we are talking about. When they have power they know how to use it. Republicans can take lessons for when they get the power back in the next few years.

Will Democrats Delay Seating Scott Brown?

Only if they fail to fraudulently take the election away from Brown.

Sorry for my less than appealing post, however I resided in MN November 2008 and know the fraud strength within the liberal machine.

Is there a specific state or Federal law about timely certification of a candidate who has won the seat.

I read on another thread that after the election, Kirk is no longer Senator and no longer able to vote. Is that correct?

Yep, while I was posting. got it. ; )

Some of us know that it WILL happen.

Power and position is a way of life for these miscreants.

Anyone know if Robert Mugabe’s election chief would like some part time work? Sounds like his process might be fairer than the one we’ll see play out.

Got a question for you Mass Dems:

Say Coakley wins on Tuesday.

When do you think you’ll see her *in* Massachusetts, giving a rats ass about the the common mans’ plight in the commonwealth of Massachusetts?

Come to think of it: When do you expect to see her at *all* except on TV from D.C., standing behind Chuckie the Schmuck, at Senatorial Press announcements and attending White House parties?

There are two different issues here.

1) Certification of the election by the Massachusetts SoS. Apparently, there is a legal basis for him doing so under State law

2) Voting by Kirk after 1/19/10. There is some legal background under the U. S. Constitution for denying him a vote after the polls are closed on the 19th

If Reid allows Kirk to vote after the 19th, there will likely by a serious constitutional challenge to any bill that passes as a result.
