First I want to say Holy Crap how many post is that. Were you waiting on your key board ready to type when the cut the ribbon?

What might and did surface was possibly Steven Lynch, how is he going to out Blue Collar him.

"Yesterday I saw Lynch’s barn coat, ready for action, hanging in the front hall of his G Street home It’s canvas,” said his wife, Margaret. “Carhartt.”

He bought it for “48 bucks at Sears,” Lynch himself recently told some Plymouth Democrats, adding that Brown’s suede barn coat “cost about 1,600 bucks at Saks.”

"Actually, it cost less than half that. But I think you see where Lynch was going, and where he’ll go nonstop when, as expected, he announces his Senate candidacy today."

"It’ll be Lynch vs. Brown, a Regular Guy smackdown. And Lynch knows he’s got the better story to tell."
