His hat is in the ring. He is a good man but if he goes to the senate, who replaces him in Congress?

A DEM Senator in THE US Senate is a priority, Help Get Markey elected, and worry about his replacement later! MA has some outstanding Democrats ready to run!

Another liberal idiot who will rubber stamp Obama's garbage, sending the nation further into debt.

And that's why I was reading the article, to see if there was a quick way to get to the Markey For Senate site to volunteer my $ and time knowing that nothing arouses the ignorant to hate more than attempting to think different.

Ed Markey: just another Liberal among the millions of 'em here in TAXachusetts. He has no redeeming virtues to earn a single vote.
