Did You Know...

Sean Bielat has momentum in his quest to unseat Barney Frank, and Frank’s team must be feeling the heat, because they’re resorting to desperate tactics not unlike the foundering golfer who hired a guy to yell “jackass!” during Happy Gilmore’s backswing.

It looks as if Barney’s got his boyfriend, James Ready, heckling Bielat.

From Fleming and Hayes:

Upon exiting the most recent debate with Barney Frank, located at WGBH studios in Boston, MA, Republican Congressional candidate, Sean Bielat, gets heckled by a Barney Frank “supporter” while talking to the media. While watching this video, we realized that we recognized this “supporter”. We received confirmation from two eyewitnesses that the mysterious cameraman was none other than Barney Frank’s pot-growing boyfriend, James Ready.

As Bielat’s talking to reporters, off camera you can hear a man who never fully puts down the camera to reveal himself say “quit the jokes, dude, you’re not funny at all.”

Here’s video of the exhange:

Imagine the outrage from Camp Barney if Bielat had his wife following Frank around and heckling him during chats with reporters.

This kind of thing makes the Frank campaign look especially classless and desperate — good news if you’d rather have Barney unable to waste billions of taxpayer dollars and instead spend his days arguing over saving a dollar of his own.
