Beatty Woos Locals In Bid for Kerry’s Seat
This morning I spoke with Kate Cantwell who works in the Beatty campaign office. She had some very good news about the race for Kerry’s Senate seat.
A Rasmussen poll has Beatty statistically tied with Kerry (within the margin of error) at: Kerry 48%, Beatty 45%.
I would like to ask for your help in getting Jeff Beatty elected to the U.S. Senate. If you can donate to his campaign, please go to his website at: www.jeffbeatty.com and help this former Delta Force member in his fight against John Kerry who has $10,000,000 in his campaign coffers.

Jeff Beatty: ‘I’m a proud member of the middle class’

When Jeffrey K. Beatty marched in Worcester’s St. Patrick’s parade, he knew he was wading into a Democratic stronghold that has always been kind to the famous incumbent he is waging a somewhat long-shot campaign to unseat: U.S. Sen. John F. Kerry.
Mr. Beatty, a 55-year-old Republican from Harwich, claims he made some headway on that chilly March 9 with a few union workers who engaged him in some friendly chitchat.
His message on the economy, he says, ought to resonate among such working, middle-class voters. He wants to cut taxes, roll-back gasoline prices and trim government spending.
He said that, in contrast, his opponent is a globe-trotter who has proposed gas tax hikes.
“He doesn’t get it,” said Mr. Beatty, who is retired from a career in the U.S. Army, CIA and FBI and running a small security business. “He doesn’t have any contact with the lives most of us lead. I’m a proud member of the middle class.”

Right on, while McCain and Obama wrestle over who gets GORE as their VP, neither of which will get my vote, I will turn my political attention and resources to Mr. Beatty. So far he sounds like a winner.

Are you teasing us? This guy has as much of a chance of beating Sen. Kerry as Mitt does being sworn in as President on Jan 20th. If you are serious, good for you for trying to help him out. But I think you are pulling our legs.

Rusty,
The Rasmussen poll says that Beatty is within the margin of error. I am not pulling your leg, I am honestly trying to help Jeff Beatty replace Kerry in the U.S. Senate.

John:
We will contribute to his campaign - Kerry and Kennedy have ruled that state too long.

Renna,
Thanks for stepping up to the plate. If we can retire either one of these UberLiberals it would be a huge symbolic victory.

John, good for you; I was half kidding anyway. I didn’t want to sound like I was demeaning your efforts. Have a great day.
