Not necessarily homophobic, 'twas a funny joke a few years back that has been squashed by the PC police. "What has hit more balls than Yastremski's bat? ...."
In the context related to the election, not an issue for me.
Reportedly, the mayor of my town (R) is gay, and I've voted for him the past several elections. Gasp, could it be a gay republican mayor ?

As for Fwank, vote him out.

I voted for Sean this morning, I've heard that Brookline had a suprising number of Bielat signs, one can only hope. Its a stretch but he just may do it.

Joe Battenfeld on Tom & Tom this morning predicted a Baker victory and a Bielat victory, he is a pretty knowledgable guy. Obviously it is super early but voter turnout is very high in the suburbs and traditionally Rebulican areas. I just love the voter energy and excitement. The people will be heard today.

JohnR, I will be sure to use the a smiley  in the future.
I know it was an old joke but though it help get a laugh out.
On a serious note, I hope Frank gets voted out for his record and his opinions on how he feels government should be run, not by his similarities to Bench or Yastremski. Off to the polls now. Check you guys later.

He might actually enjoy jail.
Sorry, I tried to resist but just couldn't. At least I used the smiley face thing to let everyone know it was a joke.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
