The Commonwealth Makeover?

Could we be seeing a political makeover in the Commonwealth of the state of Massachusetts on Tuesday? I hope so to the extent that I am going to an early Mass at the Mission tomorrow to pray hard for the improbable election of Scott Brown, REPUBLICAN, to the United States Senate from the Commonwealth. A REPUBLICAN Senator from Massachusetts, surely you're joking. As Lee Corso with ESPN College Gameday would say, "not so fast my friend." This is no joke. As Monday comes to a close, candidate Brown, he of good looks and revisionist ways, is showing a slight lead in various polls over Ted Kennedy's female liberal clone, Martha Coakley. If Brown wins this race which became close within the last two weeks because Coakley was asleep at the wheel, it has the potential to greatly imperil the standing 60 seat liberal filibuster-proof regime now ruling our country. This current filibuster has hamstrung the opposition party for the past year and rendered them vocal bystanders with little more than Fox News and local tea parties as their megahorn. But Fox News and the "teabags" may be all that was needed to help galvanize support for such a candidate.

Presently, the liberals rule the White House, both houses of Congress and the fourth estate, the media less Fox. Brown's possible victory in the bluest of the blue states, Massachusetts, would be a repudiation against the liberal loons now running our country into the ground. Not suprisingly, Coakley, another annoying face of a long and endless line of empty barrel liberal ideologues (google Teddy Kennedy), fully supports the current health care bill, dismissing Catholics from working in emergency rooms and raising taxes to pay for whatever she dreams up. Coakley is so out of touch with her constituency that she said of Curt Shilling, retired Red Sox World Series hero, he of the HOF 2004 bloody sock, was a Yankee fan. What a novel way to garner votes from rabid Boston fans!

They say sometimes life is stanger than fiction, well tomorrow's possible election of Brown may fit in that category. But, what if he doesn't pull it off tomorrow, were my prayers all for naught, was going to church a waste of time? Praying and the power that comes from prayer, is never a waste of time on any intention from the heart.
