Croakley is cratering after today's candidate rallies: Brown 60% Croakley 41% intrade.com A REPORT FROM THE SCOTT BROWN RALLY AT WORCESTER: January 17, 2010 pajamasmedia.com “It’s an absolute mob scene. The police have closed off the streets. It’s mind blowing. The hall is already full, and it holds 3,000 people. There may be another 1,000 people outside.” Meanwhile, reader Sean Fitzpatrick writes: “Pictures don’t do justice. Nothing like this in Mass since JFK. Worcester rally starts in thirty minutes and the streets are already packed.” Here’s a pic. pajamasmedia.com UPDATE: Fitzpatrick sends another picture from inside the hall, and comments: “If the Brown campaign were worried that they wouldn’t fill the hall then they needn’t have. It is standing room only and the hall management is concerned about OVERcrowding.” pajamasmedia.com I like the “Whole World Is Watching” sign at the lower left. Yep. And sometimes via cellphone pics. ANOTHER UPDATE: Meanwhile, reportedly, Coakley can’t fill a hall. “Martha Coakley and Barack Obama held a rally today in Boston. They couldn’t fill the hall. . . . It holds 3,000 and frankly only 2,000 to 2,500 showed up.” Posted at by Glenn Reynolds at 2:56 pm
