Obama is coming to Boston!

[sheshe2]

He will be here to Campaign for Markey, Senate special Election!

Gomez has kept Markey's lead to single digits in most polls of the campaign, but this new poll may indicate that the heavy volley of attacks between the two candidates may be taking a toll on Gomez.

He's been forced by Democrats to answer for a controversial tax deduction he took on his home in 2005, as well as recent fundraising pitches sent by prominent Republicans characterizing his win as key to taking back GOP control of the Senate and obstructing President Obama's agenda.

The president remains popular in Massachusetts, and voters there are wary of the national GOP. Gomez has run as a "new kind of Republican" and pledged to buck his party when necessary, but fundraising pitches from the likes of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) have undermined that message to some extent.

Despite the double-digit lead, however, Democrats are taking no chances with their nominee. Last week, First Lady Michelle Obama appeared at a fundraiser for Markey in Boston, and President Obama will hold a fundraiser for Markey next week — something he did for Martha Coakley, the Democratic nominee that lost to Republican Scott Brown in the 2010 special.

1. Marvelous.

Traffic will be a disaster hours upon hours.

[sheshe2]

5. Wow, Manny!

Please contain your excitement!

Will you be happier when Mitchie and Rubio come to support the Arch Angel Gabriel? Geeze Louise.

You love Boston Manny, that I know. I hope you want what's best for her.

[MannyGoldstein]

6. Mitchie and Rubio won't tie up traffic for hours

And will destroy Gomez's chances.

Much better deal.

[DFW]

48. Tie up BOSTON traffic for hours?

How will you tell the difference?

[TexasTowelie]

2. Gomez seems clueless on most subjects.

He'll submit to the party line on every vote.

[Cha]

3. But, but, but..

He's "not going to Washington to change laws!"

that seems to be his battle cry, anyway. yeah, clueless.

[liberal from boston]

32. Gomez is an empty suit

Gomez was terrible in the Debate last week. Massachusetts & Senator Warren need Ed Markey to be elected the next MA Senator. I am anxious about this as Scott Brown was a disaster & he got in because it was a special election. MA voters need to vote in historic numbers on June 25th !!!

[sheshe2]

8. Wow.

The response to support, vote for and send a Democrat to Washington, from the Great State of Massachusetts,
is overwhelming!

Wait let me check, I posted this at DU, correct???!!?

[Lady Freedom Returns]

12. Pay no attention she.

More Obama bashing type junk.

Just keep your eye on the ball, getting pic of the motorcade and posting them!

I love seeing Army 1! That is one HOT Machine!

[sheshe2]

15. Oh yea my eye is on the ball, Lady Freedom!

And I really think I will be to sick to make it to work Wednesday!

LOL!

[Cha]

18. Oh baloney.. that's not true. then why do you

have the President as your Avatar if you believe all the crap you write? And, don't even bother to investigate what the facts are?

"become a warmonger".. Not true.

[Cha]

22. Actually, the important thing here is

not whether you support our President or not.

It's the People of Massachusetts and Ed Markey who are Key.



First Lady Michelle was there last week..

Last week, first lady Michelle Obama headlined a fundraiser for Markey, which raised $600,000 for the longtime Massachusetts congressman.

[Cha]

Shirley and I take a curtsy!

I had that doll!~

[Cha]

42. Again LOL, she..

I didn't have the doll but I sure loved her movies.

What a concept! Having the facts at your disposal at why PBO was an excellent choice to vote for on Nov 6, 2012.

Seems so long ago.

[sheshe2]

43. It was a good choice,

an excellent one~

Sweet dreams ....see you in the morning!

[Cha]

45. Sweet dreams to you..

I'm going to start watching my netflix with Timothy Hutton in "5 Days Tol Midnight".. Sci FI~

Have a great day off tomorrow!

[Cha]

14. Shhh.. although that snoring Is atrocious..

he's asleep and doesn't care about supporting Democratic candidates for the Senate from Mass.

That wouldn't be Gomez would it?!

[sheshe2]

24. Crazy old Mitchie and junior too!

Crazy to
Stand by your Man~



Crazy
I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then some day
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do I let myself worry?
Wondering
What in the world did I do?

Oh, crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying
And crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you

Stand By Your Man~

But if you love him, then you'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him, oh, be proud of him
'Cause after all he's just a man

Stand by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And somethin' warm to come to
When nights are cold and lonely

Stand by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep givin' all the love you can
Stand by your man



Markey for Senate! 2013!

[Cha]

27. Poor Gomez..

that forced smile on his face..

[Cha]

7. This is Terrific news, she! Lucky those

in Mass who get to be there with these two together!

Gomez

Gomez said in a statement that Obama's planned fundraiser is evidence Markey's campaign is "failing."

No, Gomez.. it's Evidence that Ed Markey respects our President and wants PBO with him in his historic run in Massachusetts.

GOTV MASS! Mahalo, she~

[sheshe2]

10. Well you got it right Cha!

We need him in Washington to balance the power and restore rights to the middle class. He also strongly supports women's rights!

Sadly there seems to be a few that could care less about supporting a Democratic candidate on this thread!

DU correct. Pausing to ponder this~

Go Markey! And a great big thank you to our President, First Lady and Elizabeth Warren for their support!

Mazie Hirono-D (HI), too!

MASS thanks you.

[freshwest]

35. Been at meet ups before, got a chance? An invite Michelle to the food bank?

[Lady Freedom Returns]

9. Cool!

Will you try to see the motorcade?

If so, see about taking a couple pics!

[sheshe2]

11. I wish~

I work that day. Hmmm however I feel a fever coming on!

Maybe just maybe!

[Lady Freedom Returns]

16. A fever! MY!

You must take care! And think of your co-workers!

[Cha]

17. And, what day is that, she?

Whatever day it is .. it would be a struggle in my mind whether to manuever a way to see them or stay at work.

So great you got to see Elizabeth Warren on the campaign trail for Markey!

[Cha]

23. Nevermind.. I just

saw that it was next Wednesday! Could you trade a day, she?!

[sheshe2]

28. Sick....

I am feeling sick this Wednesday.

I never ever call in sick....however....

[Cha]

29. this Wednesday June 12, 2013 is my daughter's birthday!

How freaking Cool is that, she!

Get well on Thursday! drink lots of liquids that being Kombucha!

[sheshe2]

31. Happy Birthday to your daughter...

I will celebrate for her when I am feeling better....PS I am off Thursday. I will be able to rest then !

Kombucha it is!

She~

[Cha]

33. I will.. wish her a happy birthday from you when

I call and wishing you good well wishes and be sure and give our love and respect to Markey and Pres Obama.

[freshwest]

34. Happy birthday to her! And I loves me some Kombucha, too.

[Cha]

39. I will fresh, mahalo! Yeah, we haven't talked

about Kombucha.. what's your favorite? Mine's Gingerade, yummm

I've been drinking it for years..ever since I discovered it in NY. Makes me feel very sparkly. I don't drink as much here because it's more expensive but that might be a good thing.

[freshwest]

41. Not sure, but I like the green, red, purple and stuff. I'll try the Ginger when I can afford more.

Used to buy it by the case at the natural food market. Things have been kinda confused here for a while, though. Do you like that Acai Berry Good Belly drink, the probiotic?

Everyone's into the probiotics here now. Go to COSTCO, and it's most of what they sell, instead of the enzyme tablets. The Kombucha is supposed to be good for that, too.

I used to have Kombucha daily when doing my raw foodie thing. We have a lot of vegans, vegetarians and other foodies around the neighborhood.

I can just imagine you get your pick of all kinds of tropical goodies out there!

[Cha]

44. I use to buy it by the case in NY, too..

but I worked at a Natural Food Co-op and we got 25% off if we bought by the case.

I don't want as much now.. I have one about every other day. I don't like the green as much but will drink it in a pinch. As for Probiotics.. I drink Kombucha and eat poi. I haven't seen Acai Berry Good Belly drink. I'll look for it, thanks, fresh!

[rug]

25. "As Markey expands polling lead, Obama plans Boston fundraiser"

is the correct headline.

[sheshe2]

40. Welcome to DU, hhs5284i!

First post! Cool!
