It’s interesting his shout outs went to Romney and McCain, nothing to the Hannitys, Becks, etc that gave him the platform to gain nationwide cred. I didn’t see a mention of the Constitution in the victory speech. He was certainly dead-on national security though.
I guess its started already. He didn’t thank Rush, Sean, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, etc. Scott is right on some issues and even Mark says you have to find the common ground. We aren’t going to agree 100% with everything any politician says or does, but, it seems on this forum, one has to tow the line or be kicked to the curb.
Let’s give him time. Gosh, he hasn’t even been seated yet. I like his stance on national defense, lower taxes, less government, etc. He’s more like JFK in those areas. Heck, even JFK wouldn’t fit in with today’s DEMRAT party.
Now just think about it. Are you, or anyone else here, actually suggesting that Brown should have used the occasion of his victory speech to thank media pundits????
Get real, people. Good Lord......
And let me say this, with respect to those who wish to harm us, I believe that our Constitution and laws exist to protect this nation - they do not grant rights and privileges to enemies in wartime. In dealing with terrorists, our tax dollars should pay for weapons to stop them, not lawyers to defend them.OK, it's not a strong mention of the constitution. But he does support our 2nd amendment rights.
I'm not sure what McCain did for him, but I'm guessing that he gave Brown his on-the-ground staff and other support behind the scenes. And it is well-known that Brown used Romney's Massachusetts machine to give him state-wide presence.
It's not easy for a local candidate to mount a statewide campaign, to build up an organization from scratch. Romney doesn't "deserve the credit" for the win -- but he does deserve the thanks he got from the candidate.
