Preview of Sore Loser Thursday:

While Republicans in Washington will be busy hanging bunting and straightening the final touches on the president’s second inauguration Thursday, Jesse Gordon of Cambridge will be taking another, less festive action.
Gordon will turn the pockets on his pants inside out. No, the 44-year-old Internet marketing manager for a chemistry company is not flat broke. Nor is he attempting to advance a new hobo chic.
Gordon will be taking part in what he and other activists hope will be a day of protests across the nation designed to dampen the spirit of the quadrennial ritual and register a broad, if quiet, displeasure with the man about to be sworn in for a second term.
