Here in Mass, we are bombarded with ads from Brown and Elizabeth Warren. The most recent Brown ads have him bragging about all the leftist proposals he has supported.
He disgusts me as a candidate, an emptier suit than Barack. Since Obama will win Massachusetts handily, the only reason I’m bothering to vote at all is to have Scott Brown in the senate so he will at least caucus with the Republicans. But if he doesn’t even care who controls the senate, then screw him.
Maybe I’ll just stay home.
At least in my district we have a conservative running for state rep., Jason Petritas.
Bottom line this is the most conservative candidate in Massachusetts that can win. This is a state who’s going to overwhelmingly reelect Obama despite their own former governor running against him. We need to be realistic. Half a loaf is better than none. And a RINO is better than a commie. The best situation is to have enough conservative Senators so Brown isn’t the deciding vote on anything.
Part of Brown’s gift is sounding like a bit of a simpleton. Yes, it’s painful to actually listen to him, but he has a chance of holding ‘Teddy Kennedy’s seat’, which makes him very valuable and a very skillful pol. Note, he was a quick and skillful debater against Warren.
