On arriving at the State
House I spotted a large hawk observing the activities from
atop the head of statesman Daniel Webster. Was this some
sort of symbolism, an omen? |

headgear. |
The media begins
gathering. Barbara speaking with Boston Globe columnist Scot
Lehigh; WRKO talk show host Todd Feinberg stands among the
crowd to her left. |

 |
Barbara meets with Sen. Richard Tisei and Charlie Barker in
preparation for the news conference. |
Sen. Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester) opened the news conference
then introduced Barbara. |
Barbara addresses the media, explaining how the House Ways &
Means Chairman, Charles Murphy (D-Burlington) is attempting
to violate Proposition 2½. |

 |
Barbara amuses the crowd with her usual
irreverence. |
After introducing him, Sen. Richard Tisei, Republican
candidate for Lieutenant Governor, addresses the media on
the Proposition 2½
assault being plotted behind him. |
Republican candidate for governor Charlie Baker tells the
gathering why one-party domination is an ongoing threat to
taxpayers. |

The
crowd of media. |
Another shot of the media. |

Another view of the media crowd surrounding Charlie Baker. |
After the news conference Barbara and I rushed over to
WRKO's Brighton station to be guests on The Charley Manning
Show. |
Word of our victory didn't come until after we'd left. |
