  2. Advice:

    Tie Diane Wilkerson around John Kerry’s neck. Why is it so important for a U.S. Senator to associate himself with a person who doesn’t pay her taxes and may have perjured herself? It’s the clearest tie of Kerry’s support for the status quo.

    Audacious hope

    Today, Jeff will be taking on a US Senator thought to be among the safest elected politicians in congress but since 9/11, Americans have been paying much more attention to politicians and this development has not served Mr. Kerry. In a recent Zogby poll, Beatty and Kerry were in a statistical tie after Massachusetts voters learned of Beatty’s resume`.

    Excellent judgment

    And I’m just as certain that in Gov. Palin, Sen. McCain has found the rock-solid executive and no-nonsense reformer America needs to help President McCain bring true change and accountability to Washington.

    Excellent judgment combined with very audacious hope:

    “People see him for what he is,” Beatty told PolitickerMA.com referring to Obama. “Obama is shallow. He’s an empty suit. He doesn’t have the relevant experience to work the country out of its problems and John McCain does. I’ve been advocating an action policy to solve these problems and that’s resonating with voters. That’s why I’ll say McCain is going to carry Massachusetts and I’m going to beat John Kerry.”

    The Beatty camp contends that McCain is gaining ground in Massachusetts because Bay State voters are not comfortable voting for Obama. Obama’s recent shifts in position on energy policy, they say, have raised doubts about where Obama stands. At the same time, they say, McCain’s brand remains strong among unenrolled voters in Massachusetts.

    Beatty said Massachusetts voters may be reluctant to support a candidate about whom they know little after Gov. Deval Patrick’s (D-Milton) missteps after he first took office.

    “It’s a function of knowing your voters,” Beatty said, “being out there and listening to them. They’ve seen this movie before; it was John Kerry and Deval Patrick the first time it came out. They don’t’ want to see the John Kerry and Barack Obama version of the movie.”
