GORE'd? Is Mitt Romney Vulnerable In Massachusetts?


GreenMountainPolitics1 gets around. We hustle harder, hold forth longer and pass judgment faster on hunches, gut feelings and prejudices than any of our MSM counterparts.

Are we borderline reckless?

You bet. There ain’t no sissy corporate brake on this operation.

We call it like we see it and see it like we call it.

And, we will travel in pursuit of our punditry.

Which is how we found ourselves tonight at an event in Dedham, Massachusetts where well over 100 McCain supporters showed up at American Legion Post #18 to stick their tongues out at Mitt Romney.

Just kidding about the tongues. But the size and energy of the crowd was truly bitching.

And, if that seething mob had their way, U.S. Senator John McCain will teach former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney a valuable Mark Halperin Trade Secret – The way to win in 2008 is by making sure you carry your home state.

If anyone doesn’t understand what I’m talking about please give private citizen Albert Gore a call.

John McCain should do very well in Massachusetts.

While we’re just not ready to call Massachusetts for the Senator yet, take a good hard look at the picture I’ve posted above.

The crowd at the Post was about that large. Just better dressed and cleaner. Also, there was no brown Acid (that I knew about)

And it’s in Big Love’s back yard.

That ain’t nothing.

Also, we’re learning that Love is not a terribly popular guy in Massachusetts.

Or, as I heard it put so eloquently at the Post bar by a hard drinking 108 year old Veteran, “Romney? What’s he done? The Olympics? Good Christ, if I had an unlimited budget I could have saved the Olympics to.”

Then Gramps shot a whiskey.

With over 600 days to go until the election, Post Bar wisdom and one event crowd don’t mean much.

But they ain’t nothing.

Leading us to ask - is Big Love about to be GORE’d?
