Quite the Civics Lesson: Scott Brown Rally

Check out these pix from Friday's Scott Brown rally in the North End with Rudy Giuliani. A friend of mine asked me to post them. She is homeschooling two daughters, ages 10 and 11, who she took to the event. Here's what she said about it:

"This was the girls' first rally supporting a political candidate, and it made quite the impression on them. We've been studying the American Revolution, so the symbolism of standing before Paul Revere's statue was not lost on them.

"Both girls were able to shake both Scott Brown's hand and his daughter, Ariana's. (I think Miss Brown made an even bigger impression on them than did her father!)

"It was quite the day for their civics curriculum. After the rally, one of the girls requested we tour the Paul Revere House, which we did, despite it being a short Friday with guests due and the schedule already in disarray due to the spur-of-the-moment rally attendance. (We only heard of it at 5 of 9am on that morning, over the radio. The rally started at 10:15.)"
