    • That would make more sense

      The Dems got Boston in the bag, this really should have been in Worcester, Lowell, or another West or MetroWest medium sized city with a decent sized arena. Or hell Foxboro stadium right in Browns district. Doing it in Boston doesn't make a lot of sense to me electorally. Thats not where the votes are-and undecided voters aren't going to be coming out to Boston to see the President.

      • Need turnout in Boston, though.

        Not a sure thing.

        • Exactly.

          This isn't about undecideds.  It's about making sure lots of sure things show up.

          • Yes, but it's also about optics

            Personally I would have picked New Bedford or Fall River.  The corner of the state is in Brown's neighborhood and often feels neglected.  Having Obama come there would have been a big sign the Democratic Party values the South Coast.

  4. Check out the $quot;defense systems$quot; Raytheon help wanted ads!

    They are definitely gearing up for Mr. Peace Prize's coming wars!

  5. I'm idly wondering

    how many Brown supporters will show up, and if they will go in or stand outside...

    • You mean Brown-shirts harassing attendees?

      They have been showing up at Coakley events screaming at attendees. According to a couple of my friends, it seemed that many were from out-of-state. Hopefully the cops will do their jobs and keep the peace.

  6. Brown plans to Visit Obama's Auntie Nettie

    Just in--Scott Brown's campaign is door knocking at the "D St" housing project in South Boston today.  

    They are planning to knock on Auntie Nettie's door.  

    Wouldn't be funny if Barack showed up at the same time?
