I’ll lay off posting e-mails for a little bit, but I just love reading these. Here’s one:
Hi Kathryn — I live in Andover and will be voting after work. This morning, I passed (at 6 am in the dark) a car with “Scott Brown for Senate” scratched into the dirt on the rear windshield. I honked. She honked back. Never in Massachusetts have we had this kind of publicly expressed enthusiasm by or for Republicans. I have not been this excited to vote, ever. (Voting against John Kerry in 2004 was close, but I knew we had no chance of getting the electoral votes in MA).
And here’s another:
I just drove to my office in Peabody, MA from neighboring NH. Although I can’t vote in this election because I live out of State I have been stunned at this election and how things have turned over the past 30 days. Driving to the office today it was like driving to a Red Sox or Patriots or Celtics, etc play-off game. Cars with ‘Vote Scott Brown’ written on the windows with soap, pockets of folks lining the road with ‘Honk for Brown’ signs. Everyone smiling, cheering and friendly as if they know the destiny that is upon us. Similar to Game four of the 2004 Red Sox/Cardinals World series when you just knew the Sox were going to pull off a sweep and finally break the curse that had been hung on our necks since 1918, we only had to wait a few hours for game four to officially end. . . It feels like that here today.
