A personal message from Joe Kennedy:

I want to send a huge THANK YOU out to my supporters and congratulate Senator Brown on his new role in the U.S. Senate. Senator Brown ran a very aggressive campaign and was able to get the support and funds needed to pull a huge upset in Massachusetts. May he represent the people well.

Joe!

Kennedy Takes 22,237 Votes. That's up 68% from our 2008 top-of-ticket Barr/Root Presidential team and their 13,189 votes. Joe's best towns were 4% in Hawley and 3% in Huntington, Ware, Monroe, New Salem, and Rowe.

1.  We need ALL signs out in visible locations - we still have some at campaign headquarters.

2.  People are needed to hand out brochures outside of North Station, South Station and Downtown Crossing during peak travel times/commuter hours.  North and South Station are hubs -- people commute to suburbs via these hubs so we have potential to spread the word here.  Thinking maybe 3:30 - 5:30pm, must be outside of station due to permit requirements.  Give them some reading material for ride home, and potentially bring material home into their home...

3. Public Policy Polling is considering polling the Massachusetts Senate race and has put up a poll on their website to decide where to poll... MA is in 2nd place right now, only down 7 votes behind Alabama, with one day left to vote.

4.  Keep blogging, writing for equitable coverage, showing support - spread the word!

Call and/or email about brochures and signs -- we NEED to act NOW!!

Libertarian Joe Kennedy

The Globe reports that Coakley wants to have three way debates with Scott Brown and Libertarian Joe Kennedy. ...

Clearly her hope is that Kennedy as a Libertarian ...

But I wonder if having the Libertarian Kennedy there ...

Important point:  Joe is actually running on the Liberty Party line, but everyone knows he is a Libertarian, and that is how he is being described.

The press and blog descriptions are far more important than the half-noticed word on the ballot.

Conclusion: The real Libertarian message will go out as Libertarian whenever we get candidates on the ballot, even if the party name on the nominating paper is a bit different.

On the other hand, fighting for the 'Libertarian' word on the ballot gets you almost nothing unless, of course, you are looking to be paid for collecting signatures, and have a candidate who can afford the substantial extra tab, in which case the outcome is instant jackpot.

Finally, referring to critics of Joe's successful approach, reasoning from athletic analogies is seen not to lead to the right answers.

WE EXCEEDED OUR GOAL !!!

Our original goal was 13,500 signatures / 10,200 validated signatures. Not only did we exceed both goals but we BLEW THEM AWAY! Everyone said it couldn't be done without companies in our back pocket, significant funds or as part of one of the 2 main parties (which have companies in their back pocket and significant funds). We are ecstatic to have proved them all wrong. I want to thank everyone for their efforts and urge you more than ever to spread the word. Now that we are done collecting signatures it's on to collecting votes.

Meet Joe Kennedy, Libertarian, Candidate for US Senate

Take a look at Joe's web site http://JoeKennedyForSenate.com . Read his stands on issues like the war on Iraq, Afghanistan, marijuana, gun control, welfare, or education.  Time after time, you're going to read sensible libertarian ideas presented effectively to a wide audience.

Joe is a real libertarian, running on our sound libertarian ideas.  He's not a far-right-wing conservative with a few phony libertarian rants. He's a solid candidate who will be a credit to our party. That's why the Libertarian Association of Massachusetts endorsed him: He's a real Libertarian.  That's why the Libertarian Association of Massachusetts put $1000 of our treasury into his campaign: He's a real Libertarian.

Joe Kennedy ran a full-bore nominating campaign.  Based on numbers, it's virtually certain Joe has enough signatures to get onto the ballot.
