Scott Brown: I'm not part of the tea party
Politico ^ | 2011-02-22 | Jennifer Epstein

Though his win last year was heralded as an early victory for the tea party, Sen. Scott Brown said Tuesday that he doesn’t think of himself as part of the movement.

“I’m a Republican, period,” the Massachusetts senator said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “I have respect for the tea party. I’m a fiscal conservative – I always have been. When you talk about national security, I’m a hawk, probably more than anybody that I know in Massachusetts."

That will do for now. At least he is not a kennedy. Probably about the best we are going to get in that state.

His interview with Greta tonight was insufferable.

He has more grease on his skids than Obama.

This is nothing new, he’s essentially been saying this for awhile.

Well, Mr. Scott, everyone knows it makes great sense to dis the people that put you in office and minimize their desires and hopeful rewards from backing you.

Especially in a seat held by ultra-libs for next to forever.

Smart move, you freaking ingrate.

But he didn’t say it when he was running for election. Fooled a lot of people, now he doesn’t need them. Got what he wanted.

A lie by omission, but it doesn’t shock me, the signs were there. It’s Massachusetts. Maybe his win can open the way for a more Conservative candidate, if that’s the case, he has more than served his purpose. His recent positions have been disappointing.

The best thing he had going for him was that he wasn’t a Kennedy or that beotch Martha Coakley.

Brown was a catalyst in launching the movement that became the Tea Party. He was the line in the sand and it gave Conservatives massive energy to say “Yes we can”. It turned the Obama tide and shook the Democratic party to it's core and put them on defense. I would love to see a Conservative Tea Party candidate take Browns seat but nothing can remove the energy created by his win over the limo lib who thought she was as anointed as the O.

That is a bit of an understatement. Scott is a one term Republican Senator who won’t be missed when he is gone.

Allow me to offer an analogy. Just like in Egypt - what comes after the fall could be a lot worse. Just saying........
