Tea Party to target Sen. Scott Brown? (Yeppers! Boot the RINOs that lied to get elected!)
cnn ^ | 12/28/2010 | 'Parker Spitzer' staff

Tea Party activists are now talking openly about backing a Republican primary challenger against Mass. Sen. Scott Brown.

"I think the significance of that is –- I don’t know if he’ll get a primary challenge or survive in 2012 - but that is what every Republican in the Senate and the House up for re-election in 2012 has to be thinking about," said Salon's Steve Kornacki. "It’s going to have that threat hovering over them on every key vote for the next two years."

CNN's take on Republican news.

Much better for the TEAParty to spend time finding a primary challenger to Mrs. Kennedy over in the Democrat primaries.

Oh, yes, start stripping the Leftwingtards out of government by eliminating them from the Democrats.

I mean, like, those bad boys and girls are in favor of FORCED ABORTION, Confiscation of 401(k) accounts, Shutting off 2 cylinders in every car, and keeping your home (not theirs) at 68 degrees in winter and 98 degrees in summer.

I think you'd have some easy targets eh!

Good! Throw their arses out of office before they become entrenched with power if they refuse to abide by the will of their constituency or if they fail to follow the Constitution!

A politician like Scott Brown is about the best one can get in Massachusetts. I’m not saying he’s any better than Olympia Snowe but he’s the best you can get in a state like Massachusetts.

I’d almost back an honest democrat before I help Brown again.

Brown is only the 2nd most hated Senator in Mass.
because of Sen. Kerry, but he is working on it.

Brown is the GOPs resident traitor and backstabber.
He is truly the clone of MITT ROMNEY.

FREEPERS CAN NEVER TRUST BROWN AGAIN.

This is kind of a delema...I know he is the most left center candidate who can be elected in that state (which along with Maine should be given back to the king) but on the other hand, do we waste capital running a candidate against him? I’d rather see the Tea Party get that lefty Snowe out of Maine if it were a choice between the two and her lefty sister can be on the short list for next to go.

After the Mass November results?

How about settling for a TeaParty candidate in the Legislature from the relatively conservative areas of Charlton? Before anyone thinks about trying to win a general election in the Bluest of Blue states.

I cant believe that Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins have lasted so long. I suspect both of them are in the closet.

Fool ~ there ARE NO honest Democrats!

Don't even think that ~ it'll just make you crazy the next time you hear one of 'em speak.

Best you go out and beat up on their primary candidates ~ or, in the case of Massachusetts, make sure none of them get seniority.

Remember, if we can't keep 'em out of Congress, keep them off the more powerful committees. You do that with a constant influx of younger, newer, even more corrupt Democrats. That way you can take advantage of the criminal justice system to dispose of them at the same time you keep them from getting seniority.

Agreed. We ditch Brown and that’s a seat we won’t see again for another 40 years. A Tea Party candidate is NOT going to win in Massachusetts. Better to have Brown with us 50% of the time than another Kennedy against us 100%.

I emailed Senator Brown’s office and informed him that I would be withdrawing my financial support and activist support (phone banks, sign holding, etc...)regardless of what he does from this point forward. DADT repeal was a dealbreaker for me. If he tries to rehabilitate his relationship with conservatives it will be viewed as a temporary at best and beyond cynical. Goodbye, Scott.

If that’s the best we can get from there then fine but then the least they should be required to do is be honest, call themselves the Liberal Democrats they are.

He’s not giving us 50%, it’s more like 25% and probably about the same as a Liberal Rat gives us.

Exactly. There are 10 democrat senators up for election in "Red" states that Bush won in 2004. We need to concentrate on winning those. We also have a bunch of Red state RINOs that need to be eliminated. Put solid conservatives in red states seats and the blue state RINOs become unimportant.

However I don't know what Browns conservative rating is at the moment. My theory is that we should apply the Castle rule. Blue state RINOs can be tolerated if they vote with us 75% of the time. If it goes below that (Castle was at 52%) you primary them with the full understanding before hand that you are almost certainly throwing away the seat.

Conservatives have to start putting their foot down and say enough is enough. These RINOs leached on to the Tea Party and got elected and now it's time they start voting with how they campaigned.
I'm no longer going with the GOP program that says, “this is the best we can get”.

Being a conservative I find it is ironic about Scott Brown - so many people thought he would be a republican but when the going got rough and tough and Brown was going to be in a pickle he showed that he truly always will be a dumbocrat. his record in Mass was voting with the dumbocrats, he was a national guard JAG, and he has been courted so many times by Odumbo in DC that he has a price that he will accept. This is nothing more than the corruptocrats in Dc being influenced by money. I just wonder what was the price of the 30 pieces of silver that Brown received from Odumbo. did he offer his daughter in medical school something to. how about his other daughter. Brown and Odumbo are just corruptocrats nothing more and nothing less and both have a price thatthey will settle on. Odumbo has sold out America and Brown has too. The politics in DC is a joke. The best thing to happen is every politician be booted out and DC burned to the ground.
