Hugh Hewitt shares his thoughts about a Massachusetts Miracle:
Jan 11, 2010
Scott Brown is an impressive candidate — intelligent, experienced, good-humored and handsome.Brown’s record of public service is distinguished as well. Not only is he in his third term as a state senator, he served three terms before that as a state representative. More impressive than even that, however, is his service in uniform.
As his Web site, www.brownforussenate.com: “Senator Brown is a proud member of the Massachusetts National Guard, where he has served for nearly three decades and currently holds the rank of Lt. Colonel in the Judge Advocate Generals (JAG) Corps.”
There are only three things wrong with Sen. Brown.
He is a die-hard red Boston Red Sox fan.
He is a die-hard New England Patriots fan.
And he is a Republican running for the Senate in Massachusetts. This is the special election to fill the seat held by the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, and the vote is on Jan. 19.
In any other state this year, Brown would be ahead of his opponent, Democratic Rep. Martha Coakley, a conventional Bay State liberal who supports the failed stimulus bill, the takeover of health care and every other big-government push of Team Obama.
In any other year in this state, Brown would be behind by 30 points.
But he is within single digits and closing, held back only by a lack of funds and the stark reality of the political demographics of the commonwealth.
When Brown appeared on my radio show this week, he was upbeat and energized by an enormous populist surge across Massachusetts, where Obamacare is every bit as disliked as it is everywhere else in the United States.
Massachusetts already has universal care, thanks to the initiative sponsored by then-Gov. Mitt Romney of a few years back, so all of the massive new taxes in the federal takeover will buy Massachusetts citizens zip, even as seniors get hammered by the huge cuts to Medicare. If Brown wins, Obamacare is back to the drawing board, which is tempting many Bay State voters to take a hard look at Brown.
When Romney appeared on my show last week to support Brown’s push, he noted that Republicans can indeed win in Massachusetts as he did, by combining the conservative base in the state with the old Yankee temperament and sound fiscal policies. William Weld almost beat John Kerry a few years ago in a Senate race, and Romney himself gave Teddy a scare in 1994.
Still, the built-in partisan edge for any Democrat is enormous, even one with the barely noticeable political pulse of Coakley, who is running as an assumption, not a candidate. If Brown is close when the smoke clears on Jan. 20, still another message will have been sent to D.C. that an enormous voter revolt is under way, fueled by deep disgust with the jam-downs and takeovers pushed by the left-wing elites controlling the Democratic Party.
If Brown were actually to win, it would be among the most significant votes ever registered in a Senate race, a statement of “Stop!” that not even House Speaker Nancy Pelosi could spin.
Which is why hundreds of thousands of dollars in $50 and $100 contributions have been flowing in to Brown’s Web site for the past two weeks from across the country, a cash infusion that, if it continues these next couple of days, will allow him to be on television over the crucial weekend ahead.
Massachusetts Democrats and independents have it in their power to stop Obamacare and then return the seat to Democratic hands when the regular election is held, perhaps even to someone from the Kennedy family political trust.
In this very wired age, a strategic vote of that sort is not only possible, it almost certainly will occur in large numbers as old-school Democrats and especially union members, angered by the left-wing elites’ refusal to listen to their organizations’ opposition to the tax on so-called “Cadillac health plans,” decide to send a message.
Brown put himself in a position to win by running a near-perfect campaign. Now the Bay State voters have a real choice with enormous implications. It is the first vote of a crucial year in American history, and for the first time in a long time, Massachusetts has people guessing what it will do.

If the Ron Paul moneybombs are any indicator, as of 10:45 AM EST Scott Brown is on pace for about $640,000. I used the chart at http://ronpaulgraphs.com/dec_16_vs_nov_5_donations.html to do my calculations. However, it’s interesting to me that not even Scott Brown has reminded his facebook supporters about the moneybomb today. Only Mitt Romney’s profile has so far. I expected McCain and Palin to have at least mentioned Scott Brown on facebook by now, but now I’m not so sure. I also haven’t seen as much coverage of the moneybomb as I’d like on most conservative websites like red state, hot air, race42012, and others. We might need to go to those sites and others to remind everyone that Scott Brown could use as much publicity today as we can give him.
I’ve redone my calculations at noon EST, and if the Ron Paul graphs are followed, Scott Brown is now on pace to raise $665,000 today. Also, I don’t want to jump to any conclusions, but there are a lot of people out there who could use some reminders since I still don’t see much promoting of this anywhere except Twitter and on Mitt’s facebook page.
at 1:30 PM EST, Scott Brown has $298,406.10 in donations which puts him on pace for $745,000 now if the Ron Paul moneybomb trends are to be followed here.
Ross, thanks for the update. Keep it coming.
Come on, people. Send some bucks to Scott. Take a minute to spread the word. Advertise the MONEYBOMB on your favorite political blogs.
LET’S DO IT!
At 3:30 PM EST, the Brown campaign has raised $478,023.82! At this same point, both of the Ron Paul moneybombs were about 50% of where they ended up. Therefore, if we double the total Scott Brown currently has, it’s not unreasonable to think Scott Brown could end up raising $950,000 or even a cool million dollars today!
I just read an article from the Coakley campaign about how they raised $1,500 at a fundraiser yesterday. If that was a good day for them, today’s fund raising for Scott Brown must be spirit breaking for them.
Ross, this is FANTASTIC!
If everyone does their part and donates whatever they can, we can REALLY put Brown over the top. Nice way to keep Coakley hand-wringing and writhing…
Scott Brown’s Twitter page has announced that they are now shooting for $750,000. Also, his facebook page has finally sent out a reminder to donate. Hopefully, the Brown campaign will update the graphic at http://brownforussenate.com/red-invades-blue to reflect the new goal. We need to make sure everyone knows about the new goal, so people don’t decide against donating since the original goal has already been reached.
Pawlenty, RedState, Race42012, Politico, and I’m sure many more are now publicizing the moneybomb and the graphic has officially been updated to reflect the $750,000 goal.
As of 5:00 PM EST, the moneybomb has raised $626,375.87 which changes the projection to $1.1 million
WOO! HOO!
Keep the money rolling in, folks. Let’s get Scott to the new $750,000 mark.
Send a tremor all the way to the White House! GIVE!
Thanks, Ross. You are a superb town crier!
At 6:30 PM EST, the Brown campaign has passed $750,000 and has officially moved the goal to $1 million! The final debate begins at 7:00 PM and should bring even more Massachusetts attention to Brown’s outstanding day. It will give him a fantastic final argument when all the politicos in Massachusetts are watching and the people are deciding whom to throw their support behind. Scott Brown’s momentum is unquestioned right now, but let’s keep it up! We have 5 and a half hours to go!
HOLEY MOLEY! THIS IS HUGE!
I can feel the winds of patriotism blowing across America!
Send $25 to Scott! WE can reach ONE MILLION!
This is awesome! Thanks for keeping us posted, Ross!
Thanks to the many conservative blogs, sites, and social networking pages that joined us and a few others in promoting this moneybomb, I am forced to keep raising my forecast. I’ve been basing my forecasts on the trends of the Ron Paul moneybombs, but this moneybomb has had a much steeper progression which leads to my new projection.
At 8:30 PM EST, the Scott Brown moneybomb has raised $918,672.81 and is now projected to raise a total of $1.3 million!
Let’s pack as many donations into these last 3 and a half hours as we can!
