…as we walked back into the house from a Brown event. He is on it, have no fear.

Update: I’ll have my own stuff up as soon as possible.

Look at the picture of Robert Stacy at American Glob…

…and tell me with a straight face that he doesn’t look like some kinda street person there.

Of course if he had posted this after we met at the Border Grille and Bar for dinner and drinks that night he would have known I wasn’t in the picture.

Everybody knows The Camp of the Saints has THE shot of me from the North end.

Answer: There is none. He is exactly the same only louder.

Q: What is the difference between Robert Stacy McCain when he is making a political point and when you are in a bar with him while he is holding court and having a few?

Oh and BTW while we were at the Boarder Grille and Bar in Leominster first for supper and then for beer there was one interesting change. As I’ve mentioned before, everywhere I go I ask the people what they think of the election and what people are saying about it. The bar was the first time that a person told us that people were talking about the race.

And what did young lady of a bartender say? Everybody hates Martha Coakley and likes Scott Brown.

The times they are a-changin!

Update: One disadvantage of posting at 2 a.m. when you have been up since 6 a.m. and driving all around the state is you forget your manners, I didn’t give a shout out to the authors of American Glob or Left bank of the Charles who came to Leominster to Join us till the wee hours of the morning. My bad guys the next round is on me.

Well it wasn’t quite The Getaway…

…but our Pursuit of Mr. Brown’s vehicle today was the first car chase I’ve been involved in.

I went to South station to pick up Robert Stacy for 11:15 this morning. Boston being Boston there was no place to park for less than $25 bucks so I simply circled south station until Robert Stacy came out and we were off to the Brown headquarters in Needham.

As I make it a rule never to take the pike if it can be avoided so it took a few extra minutes to get there, as we exited we talked to a nice lady who just finished at the phone banks and who walk out but the candidate himself with his guys.

He said Hello and RSM got a shot of him with somebody but he had to leave for his press conference…

…so not knowing the location we jumped into my car and thus began a semi-high speed chase which included at least one disrespected red lights, several cars to dodge and weave around and finished with a three point turn in the middle of a two way Boston street next to the state house at just after 1 p.m.

Bottom line is Stacy made it to the conference and his report will be up shortly is now up, I meanwhile still unwilling to spring for the 20+ bucks for park spent the conference listening to Rush and circling the surrounding blocks passing and re-passing the graves of James Otis, Sam Adams, Paul Revere and John Hancock the Gould monument and the statue of Joseph Hooker (why Joe Hooker rates a statue is beyond me).

From there it was back to the overcrowded Brown campaign headquarters and then Mighty Subs for a late breakfast/lunch (The REAL reason why Robert Stacy came, must be a fan of this blog) and off to my house were he is sitting across from me typing up a storm.

For the next several days I will be Kato to his Green Hornet or much more accurately Rochester to his Jack Benny. It should be an interesting week.

Update: I didn’t even mention briefly meeting the American Glob briefly after the press conference. he reports on it here.
