    exactly.

    Schilling vs. Coakley.

    I'd vote Coakley.

    BOSTON—Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling says the chances of him running to replace Democrat Edward M. Kennedy in the U.S. Senate are "slim to none" but he will not rule it out.
    Discuss

    The three-time World Series champion told WEEI-AM on Thursday he retired from baseball in March to spare his family the downside of the public spotlight. He has also invested millions in his fledgling video-gaming business, 38 Studios.

    Yet, he said, Massachusetts has "one of the most corrupt, laughable political scenes" and needs fresh political blood.

    Schilling he's never held political office, but also has no ties to special interests.

    Kennedy died last week of brain cancer at age 77. A special election will be Jan. 19.

    Schilling has campaigned for Republicans, but would have to run as an independent because his voter status is "unenrolled."

    Re: Senator Schilling?

    I have just bought a house, essentially locking me into Massachusetts for a long time. I also hate Curt Schilling. But I think he would be a GREAT senator. Why? Cause he is very politically active, he's honest to a fault, and you know he will put in the work. I would love to have a guy like him in office rather than the two-faced suits who seem to do a great job shitting on the commonwealth. And the question of him being qualified is in the eye of the beholder I guess. He hasnt drowned any chicks in lakes, so maybe he needs to get on with that before he starts his political career.
    Hal sucks

    Schilling might just be popular enough in Boston to not have to drown anyone...and he's probably made Mass. a much better place since hes been there than Ted did lol.

    This is pure quality.

    Seriously. I'd love to see Schill the Thrill in the US Senate, shooting from the hip and constantly dropping bombs in the media about what our elected officials are really doing for us in the legislature.

    bbdoc is locked into Massachusetts residency. That's priceless, and veritable evidence of his self-torture of all things Red Sox.

    The political machine should give Schilling serious consideration. Anyone who could bring together a coalition of support from Yankee and Red Sox fans could be very hard to beat. Talk about being a uniter and not a divider.

    well, it might depend on how he killed his wife, if he drives his car into a river and she dies then it obviously isnt a problem.
