Peter Schiff Campaign HQ Grand Opening Bursting at the Seams
One word can describe the average Peter Schiff supporter at last night’s campaign HQ. Sardine. The house was packed tight like Times Square on New Years Eve. Parking had overflowed from the office parking lot to the industrial park across the street and adjacent commercial lots around the HQ.It was a well subscribed event. Most notable about the attendees was their party status. Most were not in any way associated with a political party outside of voter registration making this gathering uniquely composed amongst events of it’s type.
Rob Simmons who is the establishment candidate in the race on the Republican side has been traveling the state with a tea bag in his pocket claiming it as his Tea Party credentials. Newsflash Mr. Simmons, a tea bag doesn’t make you a good candidate. Principle does. While Mr. Simmons has a tea bag, Schiff had multiple well known Tea Party folks milling about in the crowd. It appears that although Simmons wants to be the Tea Party candidate Mr. Schiff actually is.
Word is that Schiff is also well on his way to receiving the endorsement of the Independence Caucus, a coalition of various groups formed to vet candidates for office. These are interesting times and it will be interesting to see how many NY-23s pop up across the country in response to establishment GOP candidate choices.
The biggest wild card in this race is still Chris Dodd. Will he stay in? More and more names are coming out opining that Chris ought to retire. It just may happen.

Not only is Peter Schiff the strongest Candidate for the Senate race, he would be one of the best economic advisers ever to hit Washington in a long time. C-SPAN would hit record high viewing with Peter Schiff debating on the Senate floor with Bernanke and Geithner. I got to see this happen, it would be better than watching the World series.
The American people know that the direction are country is heading towards is not right. This administration is bombarding us with more and more government control of our banks, property, businesses, health care, Cap and Trade taxes, bundled with regulations equipped with an Army of Czars that have more power than the Congress to follow through on their grand plan. They have stepped between business contracts in the auto industries and canceled them. They manipulate our constitution by going against it at times, and other time using the constitution for there advantage for example: ACORN they are saying they were denied there constitutional right.
The Greeks voted in a Socialist government, now they are out in the streets protesting. Will our country follow the same fate as the Greeks?
I don’t know if it is to late to save America, I will put up a good fight trying to do what I can to restore our country. Peter Schiff is one person I know can help this is why I support him.
Great Post! Thanks for putting up the video and photos!

Thanks for posting! Peter Schiff is exactly the candidate we need to shake up the establishment.
If Peter Schiff makes the Senate seat I would like to see him confront these Obama czars.

You’re going to hand the election to the democrats with a third candidate.
Many people I’ve spoken with feel that if it’s a Simmons/Dodd match-up that the election may as well go to the Dems. The feeling is that Simmons is a RINO in classic New England style.
