The Tea Party Express, a division of the conservative Our Country Deserves Better PAC, has announced a new TV ad in the Massachusetts special Senate election, and that they're putting $150,000 behind it.
"The big-government politicians in Washington have failed us: Bank failures, skyrocketing unemployment, out of control deficits, higher taxes," the announcer says. "It's time to bring some sanity back to WAshington -- and that's why we at the Tea Party Express endorse Scott Brown for U.S. Senate."
So what's going to happen in this Tuesday's election? Will Boston vote for, or against, the Tea Party?

This is chump change. MoveOn raised 600k for Coakley. Just shows you can't build a movement with stingy tax evaders.

Wasn't it the Bush Administration that led us to an economic collapse which caused the bank failures and skyrocketing unemployment? Didn't Obama cut taxes for the middle class? So, in effect, the Republicans are screwing us, but we are supposed to vote Republican?

Dear Eric,
Boston (pop. 609,023) represents 9% of the state's population (6,497,967). Boston ≠ Massachusetts.
Thank you.
